On the composite measure, Cora, Wyoming (ZIP 82925) stands in the top 14.6% healthiest ZIPs nationally (4,651st) and the top 7.1% of Wyoming (11th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
A balanced set of signals defines this area, not any single one: household income stands at the national maximum, and modeled humid heat sits at the national minimum. Park land resides in the top 0.4% nationally, and modeled air-toxics cancer risk stands in the bottom 0.5% nationally. Housing-cost burden sits at the national minimum, homeownership resides at the national maximum, and modeled transportation noise stands in the bottom 5.2% nationally. Distance to a Superfund site sits in the top 5.4% nationally. By contrast, distance to an emergency room resides in the top 0.9% nationally, and walkability stands in the bottom 1.3% nationally.
Set beside the wider area around it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For clarity, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. ZIP 83001, just across the boundary, ranks better overall among the ZIPs nearby.

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 2.06 years of 84.3, 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.
