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

Lower is healthier
ST2ndUS5thDefinition & source ›
The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.
A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.

The share of this ZIP’s land area that is public parkland.

ST15thUS9thDefinition & source ›
The modeled share of household income spent on home energy bills — electricity, gas, and heating fuels.
A modeled share of household income spent on home energy. Estimates that hit the model’s 100% ceiling are suppressed rather than published, because at that point the figure reflects the model’s limit rather than a measured burden.
Full methodology ›Fair or poor health
16.3%

Lower is healthier
ST9thUS21stDefinition & source ›
The estimated share of adults who rate their own general health as fair or poor.

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.
Full methodology ›The read
By the composite health measure, ZIP 89012, one of several in Henderson, Nevada ranks in the top 20% healthiest ZIPs nationally (6,372nd) and the top 13.3% of Nevada (22nd).
The signals balance out across the profile, strengths against concerns: distance to a Superfund site registers in the top 2.3% nationally, and fatal road crashes rests in the bottom 5.1% nationally. Park land stands in the top 7.7% nationally, and modeled obesity lies in the bottom 10.0% nationally. Floodplain exposure lands in the bottom 10.9% nationally, modeled energy burden sits in the bottom 9.2% nationally, and subsidized affordable housing is in the top 11.6% nationally. Walkability settles in the top 14.1% nationally. Set against that, modeled extreme heat resides in the top 1.2% nationally, and tree cover registers at the national minimum.
Read against the ZIPs closest to it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To spell things out, distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. Floodplain exposure is land with about a 1-in-100 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "100-year floodplain". Close by, ZIP 89044, just across the boundary, 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

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.
