Where this area bears down hardest, the measures speak first: modeled uninsured is in the top 0.2% nationally, and vision disability stands in the top 1.1% nationally. Modeled fair or poor health settles in the top 0.8% nationally, and colon screening lies in the bottom 1.6% nationally. Modeled extreme heat resides in the top 0.4% nationally, diabetes lands in the top 1.9% nationally, and self-care disability registers in the top 2.8% nationally. Modeled humid heat sits in the top 1.1% nationally, and mobility disability rests in the top 3.5% nationally. On the encouraging side, housing-cost burden is at the national minimum.

Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, arsenic runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 78076, just across the boundary.

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 1.47 years of 79.0, 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.
