Full methodology ›The read
With only some of the sources reporting, for Orogrande, New Mexico (ZIP 88342), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
The partial picture points to a handful of readings, with caveats: modeled industrial-pollution burden rests in the bottom 1.1% nationally, modeled expected annual loss registers in the bottom 1.5% nationally, and poverty resides at the national minimum. Homeownership settles at the national maximum, and floodplain exposure is at the national minimum. Set against that, home broadband subscription sits at the national minimum, and housing-cost burden lands at the national maximum. Distance to a nursing home lies in the top 1.2% nationally, and distance to an emergency room stands in the top 1.5% nationally. Distance to a community health center rests in the top 4.7% nationally.
Against the wider neighborhood, home broadband subscription runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put simply, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Floodplain exposure is land with about a 1-in-100 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "100-year floodplain".

| Life expectancy at birth | 77.6 yr ± 0.97 | 78.9 yr (74.7–82.8) n=31,308 | 79.5 yr (76.1–83.2) n=357 |
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 0.97 years of 77.6, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
