Lithium in drinking water
250 µg/L

Lower is healthier
ST99thUS99thDefinition & source ›
The average detected level of lithium — a natural trace metal with no federal drinking-water limit yet — across the public water systems serving this ZIP, in micrograms per liter.
Measured from EPA records for the public water systems that serve this ZIP. Households on private wells — roughly 30% of the US population — are not covered by this measure, and this figure says nothing about their water.

ST4thUS3rdDefinition & source ›
The modeled share of household income spent on home energy bills — electricity, gas, and heating fuels.
A modeled share of household income spent on home energy. Estimates that hit the model’s 100% ceiling are suppressed rather than published, because at that point the figure reflects the model’s limit rather than a measured burden.

Full methodology ›The read
Draper, Utah (ZIP 84020), by its composite score, sits in the top 10.9% healthiest ZIPs nationally (3,473rd) and the top 15% of Utah (44th).
The measures fall on both sides for this area, fairly evenly: modeled high cholesterol sits in the bottom 3.1% nationally, and coronary heart disease lies in the bottom 2.7% nationally. Modeled high blood pressure rests in the bottom 3.5% nationally, and stroke resides in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Modeled diabetes is in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Distance to an emergency room lands at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Modeled energy burden stands in the bottom 3.1% nationally. Pulling the other way, lithium in drinking water registers in the top 0.2% nationally, modeled industrial-pollution burden settles in the top 4.9% nationally, and modeled fine-particle sits in the top 5.8% nationally.
Next to the surrounding area, lithium in drinking water runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For anyone unfamiliar, lithium in drinking water is a natural metal that dissolves into some groundwater and has no federal drinking-water limit yet. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. 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 0.78 years of 81.7, 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. How distance is measured
