Full methodology ›The read
Overall, Arriba, Colorado (ZIP 80804) places in the bottom 32% nationally (21,663rd) and the bottom 10.2% of Colorado (451st).
The measures land in both directions, and neither dominates: modeled air-toxics cancer risk sits in the bottom 2.8% nationally, and floodplain exposure lies at the national minimum. Distance to a Superfund site rests in the top 6.7% nationally, and modeled humid heat resides in the bottom 7.8% nationally. Modeled transportation noise is in the bottom 10.0% nationally. Pulling the other way, walkability lands in the bottom 1.6% nationally, home broadband subscription stands in the bottom 3.0% nationally, and modeled mammography registers in the bottom 4.2% nationally. Modeled tree cover settles in the bottom 10.1% nationally, and distance to a community health center sits in the top 10.8% nationally.
For readers new to these terms, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Floodplain exposure is land with about a 1-in-100 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "100-year floodplain". Among nearby ZIPs, the nearest healthier one overall is ZIP 80815, 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 1.72 years of 78.3, 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.
