Full methodology ›The read
Coalinga, California (ZIP 93210), by its overall standing, sits in the bottom 20% nationally (25,618th) and the bottom 15% of California (1,456th).
The profile opens on the burdens that define it most: modeled disaster risk lands in the top 0.2% nationally, colon screening is in the bottom 2.6% nationally, and uninsured resides in the top 4.1% nationally. Distance to a Superfund site rests at the national minimum, crowded housing lies in the top 2.6% nationally, and modeled fair or poor health sits in the top 5.3% nationally. Modeled housing insecurity settles in the top 4.4% nationally, and arsenic registers in the top 4.5% nationally. Modeled food insecurity stands in the top 5.4% nationally. More positively, distance to an emergency room lands at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs.
Defined in plain terms, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. The nearest ZIP ranking healthier overall is ZIP 93450, 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

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 1.43 years of 80.5, 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
