What defines this ZIP

Metrics where this ZIP sits in the tails of the national distribution — the ones that most set it apart. Select any tile for its definition and methodology.

Nitrate in drinking water

94.3%

in the top 0.2% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST99th
US99th
Definition & source ›

The modeled share of this area’s domestic-well groundwater at or above the federal nitrate limit of 10 milligrams per liter.

A modeled likelihood for untreated groundwater, the source drawn on by private wells, which are federally unregulated. It is not a measurement of treated water delivered by a public system, and it is not a test of any individual well.

Higher is healthier

ST94th
US92nd
Definition & source ›

The number of civic and social organizations inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.

Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.

Housing-cost burden

9.2%

in the bottom 8.5% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST10th
US8th
Definition & source ›

The share of households spending 30% or more of their income on housing.

The read

In its overall standing, Munday, Texas (ZIP 76371) lands in the bottom 19% nationally (26,019th) and the bottom 26% of Texas (1,374th), based on limited data; treat as directional.

This area's pressures are easy to read across the measures: modeled nitrate rests in the top 0.2% nationally, modeled extreme heat registers in the top 1.7% nationally, and distance to a community health center resides in the top 1.8% nationally. Modeled uninsured settles in the top 4.5% nationally, crowded housing is in the top 8.6% nationally, and modeled colon screening sits in the bottom 10.8% nationally. On the brighter side, distance to a Superfund site lands in the top 2.9% nationally, and fiber broadband lies in the top 7.2% nationally. Civic stands in the top 8.4% nationally, and housing-cost burden rests in the bottom 8.5% nationally.

Put simply, nitrate is a groundwater compound from fertilizer, manure, and sewage, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. On the overall standing, ZIP 76483, about 2.5 miles away, ranks healthier.

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

How these were chosen: only ZIPs with a published Score appear — a nearby ZIP with too little data to score won’t. Nearby means closest by distance between ZIP boundaries, which can cross state lines. A similar health profile is a close match across the nine Score domains, not similar demographics. Distances are measured between ZIP boundaries — ZIPs that touch share a border. How distance is measured

About the ± — it’s this estimate’s give-or-take (statisticians call it the standard error). The true life expectancy for this ZIP most likely falls within 1.56 years of 78.6, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.

How these lists were built: they draw only from ZIPs that have a published Score, so ZIPs with too little data to score are not listed. Distance-based lists use distance between ZIP boundaries with no state filter, so an out-of-state ZIP can appear. Statistically similar means a close match across the nine Score domains, not a demographic match: the measure is the cosine similarity between two ZIPs’ domain scores, taken over the domains both ZIPs have data for and only where that overlap covers at least six of the nine — and where no ZIP clears that minimum-overlap floor, that list is left out rather than filled with a weak match.
