The read

In overall standing, Greencreek, Idaho (ZIP 83533) comes out in the bottom 36% nationally (20,403rd) and the bottom 26% of Idaho (197th), based on limited data; treat as directional.

The data points to real strain across a number of measures here: modeled hearing disability resides in the top 1.8% nationally, modeled mammography rests in the bottom 2.5% nationally, and distance to a community health center lies in the top 2.6% nationally. Modeled fine-particle sits in the top 4.2% nationally. On the brighter side, modeled pfas settles in the bottom 1.7% nationally, and poverty registers at the national minimum. Modeled short sleep stands in the bottom 3.1% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site lands in the top 5.1% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden is in the bottom 5.6% nationally, and homeownership resides in the top 5.7% nationally.

In plain terms, pfas is the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down; here a modeled estimate of the chance a private well contains them. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. The nearest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 83530, just across the boundary.

“Share” is how much of this ZIP’s score the domain accounts for. Percentages are rounded; higher is healthier in every domain. How the score works, and who it compares you with ›

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 1.51 years of 77.6, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.

More ZIPs to explore ▾

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.
