Full methodology ›The read
With the picture still incomplete, for Amboy, California (ZIP 92304), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
From the measures on hand, the profile can say a few things: distance to a hazardous-chemical facility registers in the top 0.7% nationally, floodplain exposure lands at the national minimum, and modeled expected annual loss resides in the bottom 3.2% nationally. Distance to a Superfund site lies in the top 6.5% nationally. Against that, slow internet speeds settles in the top 0.8% nationally, and distance to a nursing home stands in the top 1.0% nationally. Modeled extreme heat is in the top 1.2% nationally, and distance to an emergency room rests in the top 3.3% nationally. Distance to a community health center sits in the top 4.2% nationally, and modeled tree cover registers at the national minimum.
Set against the neighboring ZIPs, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In everyday language, 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. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards.

| Life expectancy at birth | 76.1 yr ± 1.54 | 78.9 yr (74.7–82.8) n=31,308 | 80.5 yr (76.7–83.8) n=1,665 |
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 1.54 years of 76.1, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
