The profile cuts both ways, and the readings bear that out: modeled humid heat stands in the bottom 0.7% nationally, civic is in the top 1.3% nationally, and modeled air-toxics cancer risk rests in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Modeled obesity sits in the bottom 7.4% nationally. Households without a vehicle registers at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Modeled extreme heat lands at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Housing-cost burden resides in the bottom 9.8% nationally. Working the other way, fiber broadband lies at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled mammography settles in the bottom 9.4% nationally, and distance to a nursing home stands in the top 10.6% nationally.

Set against the neighboring ZIPs, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In everyday language, 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. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. A healthier neighbor overall sits at ZIP 80813, just across the boundary.

“Share” is how much of this ZIP’s score the domain accounts for. Percentages are rounded; higher is healthier in every domain. How the score works, and who it compares you with ›

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 1.68 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.
