Full methodology ›The read
ZIP 76402, one of several in Stephenville, Texas, by its composite score, sits in the bottom 37% nationally (20,341st) and the top 42% of Texas (780th).
The measures that define this area's challenges come through directly: modeled cognitive disability resides in the top 0.5% nationally, and binge drinking is in the top 3.3% nationally. Unemployment lands in the top 3.5% nationally, and modeled extreme heat stands in the top 4.5% nationally. On the stronger side, modeled coronary heart disease registers in the bottom 0.3% nationally, diabetes settles in the bottom 0.4% nationally, and stroke sits in the bottom 0.4% nationally. Modeled mobility disability lies in the bottom 0.7% nationally, modeled transportation noise rests at the national minimum, and floodplain exposure resides at the national minimum.
For anyone unfamiliar, transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels. Floodplain exposure is land with about a 1-in-100 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "100-year floodplain". Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. For a healthier comparison close by, see ZIP 76401, just across the boundary.

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 1.05 years of 75.2, 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.
