Full methodology ›The read
Overall, Cody, Wyoming (ZIP 82414) lands in the top 21% healthiest ZIPs nationally (6,806th) and the top 13.6% of Wyoming (21st).
The signals balance out across the profile, strengths against concerns: park land resides in the top 0.8% nationally, and modeled humid heat registers in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Modeled air-toxics cancer risk rests in the bottom 2.8% nationally, and industrial-pollution burden stands in the bottom 4.3% nationally. Mental-health providers lies in the top 4.8% nationally. Distance to an emergency room lands at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Set against that, walkability sits in the bottom 3.6% nationally, modeled expected annual loss is in the top 7.2% nationally, and modeled radon settles in the top 10.1% nationally. Modeled fine-particle resides in the top 9.6% nationally.
Set beside the nearby areas, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. A note on the terms: 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. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. For a healthier nearby comparison, ZIP 83013, just across the boundary, ranks better overall.

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 0.89 years of 82.0, 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.
