The read

The data opens plainly on what marks this place: modeled hearing disability settles in the top 1.1% nationally, and coronary heart disease sits in the top 1.2% nationally. Distance to a nursing home lies in the top 1.1% nationally, and distance to an emergency room rests in the top 1.3% nationally. Slow internet speeds resides in the top 1.7% nationally, modeled fine-particle is in the top 1.8% nationally, and modeled stroke lands in the top 3.6% nationally. More encouragingly, modeled industrial-pollution burden stands in the bottom 1.1% nationally, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility registers in the top 1.8% nationally, and modeled humid heat settles in the bottom 2.6% nationally.

Next to the surrounding area, slow internet speeds runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For anyone unfamiliar, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. 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.

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

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.
