Lower is healthier

ST3rd
US1st
Definition & source ›

The EPA’s modeled screening score for industrial chemical releases, weighting the amounts released by their toxicity and how many people live nearby — a relative comparison score, not a measured exposure.

Transportation noise

0.00%

at the national minimum

Lower is healthier

ST1st
US1st
Definition & source ›

The modeled share of residents exposed to average road, rail, and aviation noise at or above 55 decibels — a noticeable background presence.

Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility

27.3 mi

in the top 2.5% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST83rd
US98th
Definition & source ›

The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest facility that handles enough hazardous chemicals to require an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases.

US4th
Definition & source ›

The modeled probability that PFAS “forever chemicals” would be detected in untreated groundwater in this area, the source private wells draw on.

A modeled likelihood for untreated groundwater, the source drawn on by private wells, which are federally unregulated. It is not a measurement of treated water delivered by a public system, and it is not a test of any individual well.

US95th
Definition & source ›

The share of homes whose fastest available download speed is under 10 Mbps.

The read

From what the available data documents, for Banks, Idaho (ZIP 83602), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.

On the partial data in hand, the profile shows what it can: modeled industrial-pollution burden rests in the bottom 0.9% nationally, modeled transportation noise lies at the national minimum, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility sits in the top 2.5% nationally. Modeled pfas settles in the bottom 4.5% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site registers in the top 7.8% nationally. Set against that, distance to a nursing home stands in the top 3.7% nationally, and slow internet speeds lands in the top 5.1% nationally. Distance to an emergency room is in the top 6.4% nationally, and modeled fine-particle resides in the top 6.9% nationally. Distance to a community health center rests in the top 9.0% nationally.

In plain terms, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. 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. 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.

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 1.96 years of 81.6, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
