Full methodology ›The read
By the composite measure, ZIP 80015, one of several in Centennial, Colorado sits in the top 7.8% healthiest ZIPs nationally (2,485th) and the top 16% of Colorado (79th).
The profile cuts both ways, and the readings bear that out: modeled high cholesterol settles in the bottom 3.0% nationally, modeled obesity stands in the bottom 5.4% nationally, and park land is in the top 3.8% nationally. Modeled high blood pressure rests in the bottom 3.4% nationally, coronary heart disease sits in the bottom 3.7% nationally, and mobility disability registers in the bottom 3.4% nationally. Modeled diabetes lands in the bottom 3.3% nationally. Working the other way, modeled disaster risk resides in the top 0.3% nationally, and tree cover lies at the national minimum. Distance to a Superfund site settles in the bottom 6.3% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. ZIP 80016, just across the boundary, ranks healthier overall.

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

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.
