What defines this ZIP

Metrics where this ZIP sits in the tails of the national distribution — the ones that most set it apart. Select any tile for its definition and methodology.

Mammography

61.7%

in the bottom 1.1% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST6th
US1st
Definition & source ›

The estimated share of women aged 50–74 who had a mammogram within the past two years.

Full methodology ›

Humid extreme heat

1.5 days/year

in the bottom 1.0% nationally

Lower is healthier

The average number of days per year when modeled heat stress — temperature, humidity, sun, and wind combined — reaches levels hard on the body outdoors.

Full methodology ›

Fatal road crashes

68.8 per 100,000 residents per year

in the top 1.5% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST98th
US99th
Definition & source ›

The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.

A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.

Binge drinking

11.0%

in the bottom 3.1% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST58th
US3rd
Definition & source ›

The estimated share of adults who report binge drinking — five or more drinks on one occasion for men, four or more for women.

75.6 mi

in the top 5.7% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST63rd

in the top 5.9% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST97th
US94th

21 mi

in the top 7.7% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST80th
US92nd

2.9 pCi/L

in the top 11.2% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST95th
US89th
Definition & source ›

The modeled typical indoor radon level for this area, in picocuries per liter — the EPA recommends fixing a home at 4 pCi/L or above.

Modeled from indoor-radon measurements. In Alaska and Hawaii, where those measurements are not published, a US Geological Survey geologic radon-potential category stands in — a coarser input, disclosed rather than hidden.

What the numbers press hardest on defines much of the story here: modeled mammography is in the bottom 1.1% nationally, fatal road crashes rests in the top 1.5% nationally, and unemployment sits in the top 5.9% nationally. Modeled air-toxics cancer risk registers in the top 7.5% nationally, distance to a community health center lands in the top 7.7% nationally, and modeled fine-particle resides in the top 8.6% nationally. Modeled radon lies in the top 11.2% nationally. On the encouraging side, modeled humid heat settles in the bottom 1.0% nationally, and binge drinking stands in the bottom 3.1% nationally. Distance to a Superfund site is in the top 5.7% nationally.

In everyday language, distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. 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. A healthier neighbor overall sits at ZIP 84021, just across the boundary.

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 3.05 years of 88.4, 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.
