continue reading

The data opens on a genuinely even set of readings: modeled binge drinking settles in the bottom 0.2% nationally, and high cholesterol sits in the bottom 2.5% nationally. Modeled high blood pressure lies in the bottom 3.0% nationally, and walkability rests in the top 4.3% nationally. Distance to an emergency room resides at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Modeled coronary heart disease is in the bottom 5.1% nationally, and stroke lands in the bottom 4.3% nationally. On the other side, modeled expected annual loss stands in the top 3.2% nationally, loud transportation noise registers in the top 4.0% nationally, and tree cover settles at the national minimum.

Next to the surrounding area, walkability runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For anyone unfamiliar, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Loud transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to road, rail, and air noise at or above 65 decibels, near conversation volume.

Findings that name this ZIP

One of our published findings lists this ZIP code. Each finding compares one published measure against a stated benchmark, and names only the ZIP codes whose estimates are reliable enough to rank. See all surprising findings.

  • Heavy environment, light chronic burden

    Where the environment and chronic illness point in opposite directions

    Environmental-hazard standing 18.4; chronic-disease standing 95.3 (top 10%) — 77 points apart, heavier on the environment than it is on chronic illness.

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 0.70 years of 79.6, 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.
