ST3rdUS1stDefinition & source ›
The EPA’s modeled screening score for industrial chemical releases, weighting the amounts released by their toxicity and how many people live nearby — a relative comparison score, not a measured exposure.

The average number of days per year with a modeled daily high of at least 95 °F.

Lower is healthier
ST99thUS99thDefinition & 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 distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest facility that handles enough hazardous chemicals to require an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases.

Full methodology ›The read
By the composite health measure, Bunkerville, Nevada (ZIP 89007) ranks in the top 34% healthiest ZIPs nationally (10,908th) and the top 28% of Nevada (47th).
The picture here is genuinely mixed, with readings on both sides: modeled industrial-pollution burden is in the bottom 1.1% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site settles in the top 1.3% nationally. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility resides in the top 1.8% nationally, and poverty registers at the national minimum. Homeownership rests at the national maximum, and home broadband subscription stands at the national maximum. Unemployment lies at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. On the other side, modeled extreme heat lands in the top 1.1% nationally, lithium in drinking water sits in the top 1.5% nationally, and walkability is in the bottom 1.8% nationally.
Read against the ZIPs closest to it, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To spell things out, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Lithium in drinking water is a natural metal that dissolves into some groundwater and has no federal drinking-water limit yet. Close by, ZIP 84770, about 25 miles away, ranks 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 3.07 years of 84.3, 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.
