Granby, Colorado (ZIP 80446), in overall standing, comes out in the top 14.0% healthiest ZIPs nationally (4,479th) and the top 29% of Colorado (144th).
An even profile, with readings pulling both ways: park land resides in the top 1.4% nationally, modeled humid heat sits in the bottom 1.8% nationally, and modeled obesity stands in the bottom 3.7% nationally. Mental-health providers resides in the top 2.9% nationally, civic sits in the top 6.9% nationally, and modeled high blood pressure stands in the bottom 5.3% nationally.

Set within its surrounding area, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, for reference, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is a plant handling large amounts of hazardous chemicals that must file an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. The closest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 80447, 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 1.41 years of 80.8, 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.
