Full methodology ›The read
Almo, Idaho (ZIP 83312), by its overall standing, sits in the bottom 38% nationally (19,891st) and the bottom 28% of Idaho (192nd), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The profile opens on the readings that matter most locally: distance to a nursing home lies in the top 2.4% nationally, distance to an emergency room sits in the top 3.3% nationally, and slow internet speeds settles in the top 3.9% nationally. Modeled hearing disability registers in the top 4.8% nationally, mammography stands in the bottom 5.1% nationally, and colon screening lands in the bottom 5.4% nationally. More positively, modeled transportation noise is at the national minimum, and poverty resides at the national minimum. Home broadband subscription rests at the national maximum, and modeled air-toxics cancer risk lies in the bottom 2.8% nationally.
Held up against its neighbors, slow internet speeds runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined in plain terms, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels. The nearest ZIP ranking healthier overall is ZIP 83342, 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 1.40 years of 82.4, 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.
