By the composite measure, ZIP 89145, one of several in Las Vegas, Nevada sits in the bottom 44% nationally (17,997th) and the top 49% of Nevada (81st).
Where the data leans one way, another reading answers it: distance to a Superfund site registers in the top 2.5% nationally, walkability lands in the top 5.5% nationally, and subsidized affordable housing resides in the top 8.2% nationally. Transit lies in the top 14.3% nationally, and dental providers settles in the top 16% nationally. On the other hand, modeled tree cover stands at the national minimum, and extreme heat is in the top 5.7% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise rests in the top 10.7% nationally, and housing-cost burden sits in the top 15% nationally. Modeled mammography registers in the bottom 14.1% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, 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. Subsidized affordable housing is the main federal tax-credit program (HUD) funding affordable rental housing, counted as local units it supports. ZIP 89117, 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

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 0.63 years of 76.8, 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.
