Distance to a community health center
45.3 mi
in the top 1.5% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST99thUS99thDefinition & source ›
The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest federally funded community health center, which serves patients regardless of ability to pay.
Full methodology ›Elder-services access
0.53 per 1,000 residents
in the top 2.2% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST97thUS98thDefinition & source ›
The number of services for older adults and people with disabilities inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.
Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.
Full methodology ›Child-care access
0.79 per 1,000 residents
in the top 3.9% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST97thUS96thDefinition & source ›
The number of child day-care services inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.
Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.
Full methodology ›Nitrate in drinking water
5.7%
in the top 4.0% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST94thUS96thDefinition & source ›
The modeled share of this area’s domestic-well groundwater at or above the federal nitrate limit of 10 milligrams per liter.
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 ›Obesity
26.3%
in the bottom 7.8% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST44thUS8thDefinition & source ›
The estimated share of adults with obesity, defined as a body-mass index of 30 or higher.
Full methodology ›Radon
3 pCi/L
in the top 9.8% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST86thUS90thDefinition & source ›
The modeled typical indoor radon level for this area, in picocuries per liter — the EPA recommends fixing a home at 4 pCi/L or above.
Modeled from indoor-radon measurements. In Alaska and Hawaii, where those measurements are not published, a US Geological Survey geologic radon-potential category stands in — a coarser input, disclosed rather than hidden.
Full methodology ›Walkability
2.1 intersections/sq mi
in the bottom 8.0% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST34thUS8thDefinition & source ›
The number of street intersections per square mile — a standard street-connectivity measure; denser networks correlate with more walkable neighborhoods.
Full methodology ›High blood pressure

The estimated share of adults who have been told by a health professional that they have high blood pressure.
Full methodology ›Dry extreme heat

Lower is healthier
ST96thUS87thDefinition & source ›
The average number of days per year with a modeled daily high of at least 95 °F.
Full methodology ›High cholesterol

The estimated share of adults with high cholesterol, among those who have ever been screened for it.
Full methodology ›The read
In its overall standing, Wray, Colorado (ZIP 80758) lands in the top 39% healthiest ZIPs nationally (12,497th) and the bottom 41% of Colorado (297th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
This area's measures are easy to read as a mixed set: elder services stands in the top 2.2% nationally, and childcare rests in the top 3.9% nationally. Distance to an emergency room registers at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Modeled obesity resides in the bottom 7.8% nationally, and high blood pressure settles in the bottom 8.7% nationally. Set against that, distance to a community health center is in the top 1.5% nationally, and modeled nitrate sits in the top 4.0% nationally. Modeled radon lands in the top 9.8% nationally, and walkability lies in the bottom 8.0% nationally. Modeled tree cover stands in the bottom 10.2% nationally.
Put simply, nitrate is a groundwater compound from fertilizer, manure, and sewage, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. Distance to a community health center is a federally funded (HRSA) community health center serving everyone regardless of ability to pay. On the overall standing, ZIP 80735, just across the boundary, ranks healthier.

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 0.79 years of 78.7, 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.
