In its overall standing, ZIP 92394, one of several in Victorville, California lands in the bottom 29% nationally (22,651st) and the bottom 23% of California (1,324th).
Reading across the data, the real pressures come first: modeled colon screening sits in the bottom 2.2% nationally, distance to a Superfund site lands at the national minimum, and modeled loneliness lies in the top 3.0% nationally. Modeled housing insecurity stands in the top 4.1% nationally, tree cover rests at the national minimum, and food insecurity registers in the top 5.7% nationally. Modeled transportation resides in the top 5.8% nationally, and uninsured settles in the top 7.2% nationally. Modeled extreme heat is in the top 7.7% nationally.

Against the wider neighborhood, outer-floodplain exposure runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put simply, 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. On the overall standing, ZIP 92307, just across the boundary, ranks healthier.

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 0.46 years of 75.2, 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. How distance is measured
