The number of services for older adults and people with disabilities 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.

Full methodology ›The read
On balance, and by the composite measure, Cambridge, Idaho (ZIP 83610) ranks in the bottom 46% nationally (17,379th) and the bottom 40% of Idaho (161st), based on limited data; treat as directional.
Where this area bears down hardest, the measures speak first: modeled hearing disability rests in the top 1.2% nationally, and distance to a nursing home is in the top 3.6% nationally. Walkability stands in the bottom 3.9% nationally, and distance to an emergency room settles in the top 6.1% nationally. Modeled mammography lies in the bottom 7.8% nationally. On the encouraging side, elder services resides in the top 0.8% nationally, modeled loneliness lands in the bottom 1.1% nationally, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility registers in the top 1.9% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden sits in the bottom 7.9% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site rests in the top 8.4% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs it borders, elder services runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plainer terms, 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. 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 Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. For a healthier nearby ZIP overall, look to ZIP 83645, 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 1.35 years of 80.5, 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.
