Lithium in drinking water

ST1stUS2ndDefinition & 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.

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

The share of days in the year when modeled fine-particle (PM2.5) pollution was above the EPA’s daily limit of 35 micrograms per cubic meter.

Mendon, Utah (ZIP 84325), overall, ranks in the top 7.8% healthiest ZIPs nationally (2,491st) and the top 8.1% of Utah (23rd).
Taken together, the data gives a genuinely mixed reading: lithium in drinking water is in the bottom 2.5% nationally, modeled binge drinking sits in the bottom 4.0% nationally, and poverty lands in the bottom 5.1% nationally. Modeled housing insecurity lies in the bottom 5.4% nationally, civic stands in the top 6.1% nationally, and park land rests in the top 7.2% nationally. Modeled food insecurity registers in the bottom 7.3% nationally, and home broadband subscription resides in the top 7.4% nationally. Modeled high blood pressure settles in the bottom 5.8% nationally. On the other side, modeled fine-particle is in the top 6.4% nationally.
Measured against the nearby ZIPs, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, lithium in drinking water is a natural metal that dissolves into some groundwater and has no federal drinking-water limit yet. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. ZIP 84318, about 5.3 miles away, comes out healthier overall.

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 1.08 years of 82.7, 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
