The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 0.2%-annual-chance flood band — the “500-year” zone, a lower but real 1-in-500 yearly chance.
Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.

Full methodology ›The read
In overall standing, Magnolia, Texas (ZIP 77354) comes out in the top 25% healthiest ZIPs nationally (7,904th) and the top 13.0% of Texas (241st).
Several good marks anchor the profile and deserve first mention: modeled radon lands in the bottom 4.2% nationally. Distance to a community health center is at the national minimum, shared with about 23% of ZIPs. Modeled coronary heart disease resides in the bottom 9.7% nationally. By contrast, modeled expected annual loss rests in the top 2.6% nationally, and humid heat lies in the top 3.0% nationally. Modeled disaster risk sits in the top 4.8% nationally, and outer-floodplain exposure settles in the top 7.5% nationally. Modeled air-toxics cancer risk registers in the top 7.6% nationally, and extreme heat stands in the top 8.4% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden lands in the top 11.7% nationally.
Relative to the ZIPs around it, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain terms, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. The nearest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 77316, 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 0.57 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. How distance is measured
