Obesity
23.1%
in the bottom 3.1% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST16thUS3rdDefinition & source ›
The estimated share of adults with obesity, defined as a body-mass index of 30 or higher.
Full methodology ›Natural-disaster risk
in the top 3.4% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST90thUS97thDefinition & source ›
This area’s national rank on its single highest non-flood natural hazard — such as wildfire, tornado, or earthquake — in FEMA’s modeled National Risk Index; flooding is shown separately.
Full methodology ›Lead in tap water
7.7 ppb
in the top 5.3% nationally
Lower is healthier
US95thDefinition & source ›
The lead level at the 90th percentile of tap-water samples reported by the public water systems serving this ZIP, in parts per billion — the EPA requires action above 15 ppb.
Measured from EPA records for the public water systems that serve this ZIP. Households on private wells — roughly 30% of the US population — are not covered by this measure, and this figure says nothing about their water.
Full methodology ›Median household income
$132,292
in the top 6.6% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST88thUS93rdDefinition & source ›
The middle household income in this ZIP — half of households earn more, half earn less — in dollars per year.
Full methodology ›PFAS in drinking water

Lower is healthier
ST98thUS93rdDefinition & source ›
The modeled probability that PFAS “forever chemicals” would be detected in untreated groundwater in this area, the source private wells draw on.
A modeled likelihood for untreated groundwater, the source drawn on by private wells, which are federally unregulated. It is not a measurement of treated water delivered by a public system, and it is not a test of any individual well.
Full methodology ›Short sleep

in the bottom 6.2% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST31stUS6thDefinition & source ›
The estimated share of adults who usually sleep less than seven hours in a 24-hour period.

Full methodology ›The read
Morrison, Colorado (ZIP 80465), by its overall standing, sits in the top 8.7% healthiest ZIPs nationally (2,769th) and the top 19% of Colorado (93rd).
The measures fall on both sides of the ledger for this area: modeled obesity sits in the bottom 3.1% nationally, household income settles in the top 6.6% nationally, and modeled short sleep registers in the bottom 6.2% nationally. Park land stands in the top 7.2% nationally, modeled tooth loss lands in the bottom 2.4% nationally, and modeled fair or poor health is in the bottom 5.1% nationally. Modeled mobility disability resides in the bottom 6.2% nationally. Set against that, modeled disaster risk rests in the top 3.4% nationally, and lead in tap water lies in the top 5.3% nationally. Modeled pfas sits in the top 6.7% nationally.
Held up against its neighbors, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined in plain terms, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. Pfas is the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down; here a modeled estimate of the chance a private well contains them. The nearest ZIP ranking healthier overall is ZIP 80127, 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 1.08 years of 81.1, 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.
