In its overall standing, Centennial, Wyoming (ZIP 82055) lands in the top 12.6% healthiest ZIPs nationally (4,029th) and the top 5.9% of Wyoming (9th).
Reading the numbers as a whole, the picture lands somewhere in between: modeled humid heat registers at the national minimum, modeled short sleep resides in the bottom 0.2% nationally, and park land settles in the top 1.1% nationally. Housing-cost burden is at the national minimum, homeownership sits at the national maximum, and home broadband subscription lands at the national maximum. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility lies in the top 3.0% nationally, and modeled cognitive disability stands in the bottom 1.9% nationally. On the other side, distance to a nursing home rests in the top 2.1% nationally, and distance to an emergency room registers in the top 2.5% nationally.
Against the wider neighborhood, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put simply, 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. On the overall standing, ZIP 82063, about 11 miles away, 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 1.58 years of 81.4, 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.
