ZIP 77328, one of several in Cleveland, Texas ranks in the bottom 11.7% nationally (28,320th) and the bottom 12.8% of Texas (1,630th).
A balanced set of signals defines this area, not any single one: modeled radon lies in the bottom 6.9% nationally. By contrast, modeled uninsured is in the top 3.0% nationally, and colon screening registers in the bottom 4.3% nationally. Modeled humid heat lies in the top 3.2% nationally, air-toxics cancer risk is in the top 7.4% nationally, and expected annual loss registers in the top 8.5% nationally. Modeled extreme heat lies in the top 9.4% nationally, modeled fair or poor health is in the top 10.6% nationally, and crowded housing registers in the top 9.9% nationally. Modeled cognitive disability lies in the top 10.7% nationally.
Against its neighbors, outer-floodplain exposure runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For context, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. The closest ZIP that ranks healthier overall is ZIP 77303, 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 0.53 years of 74.5, 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. How distance is measured
