Full methodology ›The read
In its overall standing, ZIP 93030, one of several in Oxnard, California lands in the top 41% healthiest ZIPs nationally (13,170th) and the bottom 46% of California (931st).
Taken together, the data gives a genuinely mixed reading: subsidized affordable housing sits in the top 0.6% nationally, and modeled industrial-pollution burden lands in the bottom 4.7% nationally. Distance to an emergency room lies at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. On the other side, modeled expected annual loss stands in the top 0.6% nationally, and outer-floodplain exposure rests in the top 1.2% nationally. Crowded housing registers in the top 2.0% nationally, and modeled colon screening resides in the bottom 4.2% nationally. Modeled uninsured settles in the top 5.0% nationally, and disaster risk is in the top 3.3% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise sits in the top 5.8% nationally.
Against the wider neighborhood, subsidized affordable housing runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put simply, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. On the overall standing, ZIP 93010, 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 0.55 years of 79.8, 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. How distance is measured
