Overall, ZIP 84081, one of several in West Jordan, Utah places in the top 22% healthiest ZIPs nationally (6,927th) and the top 35% of Utah (99th).
The data opens on a genuinely even set of readings: modeled high cholesterol registers in the bottom 1.7% nationally, and coronary heart disease settles in the bottom 1.6% nationally. Modeled high blood pressure sits in the bottom 2.0% nationally, and stroke lies in the bottom 2.0% nationally. Modeled diabetes rests in the bottom 2.2% nationally, hearing disability resides in the bottom 4.0% nationally, and mobility disability is in the bottom 4.2% nationally. On the other side, modeled industrial-pollution burden lands in the top 3.8% nationally, tree cover stands at the national minimum, and fine-particle registers in the top 5.8% nationally.
Beside the areas that surround it, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For readers new to these terms, 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. Among nearby ZIPs, the nearest healthier one overall is ZIP 84006, 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 0.92 years of 78.7, 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
