Full methodology ›The read
Tendoy, Idaho (ZIP 83468), by its composite score, sits in the bottom 46% nationally (17,299th) and the bottom 41% of Idaho (159th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The measures that define this area's challenges come through directly: modeled hearing disability resides in the top 2.3% nationally, and distance to a community health center is in the top 3.5% nationally. Modeled fine-particle lands in the top 3.5% nationally, and distance to a nursing home stands in the top 5.3% nationally. On the stronger side, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility registers in the top 0.5% nationally, housing-cost burden settles at the national minimum, and home broadband subscription sits at the national maximum. Modeled air-toxics cancer risk lies in the bottom 2.8% nationally, humid heat rests in the bottom 5.6% nationally, and loneliness resides in the bottom 6.4% nationally.
For anyone unfamiliar, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is a plant handling large amounts of hazardous chemicals that must file an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases. Air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard.

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 2.01 years of 77.4, 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.
