Full methodology ›The read
Glenwood, Utah (ZIP 84730), by its overall standing, sits in the top 20% healthiest ZIPs nationally (6,526th) and the top 32% of Utah (91st), based on limited data; treat as directional.
Several readings land clearly in this area's favor and shape the picture: modeled air-toxics cancer risk lands in the bottom 2.8% nationally, modeled binge drinking is in the bottom 2.2% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site resides in the top 2.9% nationally. Modeled expected annual loss rests in the bottom 4.8% nationally, humid heat lies in the bottom 5.5% nationally, and transportation noise sits in the bottom 6.1% nationally. Unemployment settles at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Housing-cost burden registers in the bottom 7.5% nationally, and modeled housing insecurity stands in the bottom 9.5% nationally. Set against that, modeled arsenic lands in the top 5.8% nationally.
Defined in plain terms, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. The nearest ZIP ranking healthier overall is ZIP 84657, about 1.7 miles away.

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 2.30 years of 83.2, 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.
