Full methodology ›The read
ZIP 89139, one of several in Las Vegas, Nevada, in overall standing, comes out in the top 25% healthiest ZIPs nationally (7,871st) and the top 20% of Nevada (33rd).
An even profile, with readings pulling both ways: distance to a Superfund site is in the top 2.6% nationally, modeled coronary heart disease lies in the bottom 3.3% nationally, and modeled hearing disability registers in the bottom 4.5% nationally. Modeled obesity is in the bottom 8.7% nationally, and stroke lies in the bottom 5.4% nationally. Against that, modeled extreme heat registers in the top 1.9% nationally, and outer-floodplain exposure is in the top 2.2% nationally. Modeled colon screening lies in the bottom 5.1% nationally, and tree cover registers at the national minimum. Modeled loneliness is in the top 7.5% nationally.
Set within its surrounding area, outer-floodplain exposure runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, for reference, 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. Outer-floodplain exposure is land with a lower but real 1-in-500 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "500-year floodplain". The closest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 89141, just across the boundary.

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.
