In overall standing, Kirby, Wyoming (ZIP 82430) comes out in the bottom 32% nationally (21,679th) and the bottom 13.6% of Wyoming (134th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The data is direct about where this area carries real strain: unemployment lies in the top 0.4% nationally, distance to a community health center sits in the top 1.6% nationally, and households without a vehicle settles in the top 3.3% nationally. Modeled tree cover registers at the national minimum, and colon screening stands in the bottom 8.4% nationally. More encouragingly, modeled expected annual loss lands in the bottom 2.2% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site is in the top 2.2% nationally. Modeled air-toxics cancer risk resides in the bottom 2.8% nationally, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility rests in the top 4.5% nationally. Modeled humid heat lies in the bottom 7.5% nationally.
Relative to the ZIPs around it, unemployment runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain terms, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. 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. The nearest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 82401, 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 1.41 years of 76.5, 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.
