continue reading

The profile carries real weight, and several readings make that plain: modeled mammography lands in the bottom 1.1% nationally, distance to a nursing home rests in the top 0.4% nationally, and distance to an emergency room settles in the top 0.7% nationally. Crowded housing lands in the top 1.8% nationally, and modeled colon screening rests in the bottom 5.0% nationally. Better still, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility settles in the top 0.5% nationally, and modeled air-toxics cancer risk lands in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Distance to a Superfund site rests in the top 3.4% nationally, and modeled obesity settles in the bottom 7.8% nationally. Floodplain exposure lands in the bottom 7.9% nationally.

Set within its surrounding area, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, for reference, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is a plant handling large amounts of hazardous chemicals that must file an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases. 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. The closest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 84533, about 0.6 miles away.

“Share” is how much of this ZIP’s score the domain accounts for. Percentages are rounded; higher is healthier in every domain. How the score works, and who it compares you with ›

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 0.86 years of 78.5, 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.
