Full methodology ›The read
ZIP 89109, one of several in Las Vegas, Nevada ranks in the bottom 21% nationally (25,338th) and the bottom 28% of Nevada (119th).
Several readings make the pressure on this area plain: fatal road crashes is in the top 1.4% nationally, and modeled extreme heat registers in the top 1.5% nationally. On the encouraging side, pharmacy lies in the top 0.3% nationally, and recreation is in the top 0.8% nationally. Outpatient registers in the top 1.1% nationally, physicians lies in the top 1.3% nationally, and transit is in the top 1.3% nationally. Mental-health providers registers in the top 1.4% nationally, civic lies in the top 1.8% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site is in the top 2.4% nationally.
Against its neighbors, pharmacy runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For context, 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. The closest ZIP that ranks healthier overall is ZIP 89118, less than a tenth of a mile away.

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. How distance is measured
