ST92ndUS86thDefinition & source ›
The number of full supermarkets inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.
Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one. ZipVitals’s food-access signal is derived from these in-ZIP densities — it is not USDA’s food-desert designation, which measures distance to the nearest supermarket. Where a leg is missing, a ZIP reads “not determinable,” never “not a food desert.”

St. Anthony, Idaho (ZIP 83445), in overall standing, comes out in the top 48% healthiest ZIPs nationally (15,445th) and the bottom 49% of Idaho (137th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
A healthy showing across the board, and a few measures carry it: modeled humid heat lies in the bottom 8.0% nationally, air-toxics cancer risk registers in the bottom 8.1% nationally, and high cholesterol is in the bottom 6.3% nationally. Elder services lies in the top 11.3% nationally. Distance to a community health center registers at the national minimum, shared with about 23% of ZIPs. Distance to a Superfund site is in the top 11.4% nationally, and modeled high blood pressure lies in the bottom 10.4% nationally. Grocery registers in the top 13.6% nationally. On the other hand, modeled fine-particle is in the top 7.3% nationally, and mammography lies in the bottom 8.3% nationally.
Defined simply, for reference, fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. 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. The closest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 83420, 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 0.68 years of 79.1, 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.
