Full methodology ›The read
By the composite health measure, Evergreen, Colorado (ZIP 80439) ranks in the top 3.5% healthiest ZIPs nationally (1,112th) and the top 4.6% of Colorado (23rd).
The signals balance out across the profile, strengths against concerns: household income lands in the top 3.3% nationally, and modeled obesity sits in the bottom 2.2% nationally. Modeled short sleep is in the bottom 1.2% nationally, and park land settles in the top 3.9% nationally. Modeled humid heat resides in the bottom 4.1% nationally, fair or poor health registers in the bottom 2.2% nationally, and independent living disability rests in the bottom 2.3% nationally. Recreation stands in the top 5.8% nationally, and modeled air-toxics cancer risk lies in the bottom 6.4% nationally. Set against that, modeled disaster risk lands in the top 0.5% nationally.
Read against the ZIPs closest to it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To spell things out, 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. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. Close by, ZIP 80007, about 7.6 miles away, 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.
