Full methodology ›The read
Sinclair, Wyoming (ZIP 82334), in overall standing, comes out in the bottom 31% nationally (21,970th) and the bottom 13.0% of Wyoming (135th).
The profile carries real weight, and several readings make that plain: modeled mammography settles in the bottom 0.6% nationally, distance to a community health center lands in the top 0.9% nationally, and modeled colon screening rests in the bottom 4.8% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden settles in the top 8.6% nationally. Better still, modeled humid heat lands in the bottom 0.3% nationally, and recreation rests in the top 1.1% nationally. Distance to a Superfund site settles in the top 2.9% nationally, and poverty lands in the bottom 5.0% nationally. Modeled air-toxics cancer risk rests in the bottom 5.5% nationally, and housing-cost burden settles in the bottom 7.8% nationally.
Set within its surrounding area, industrial-pollution burden runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, for reference, distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. The closest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 82301, 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 2.12 years of 78.5, 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.
