Full methodology ›The read
By the composite measure, ZIP 94575, one of several in Moraga, California sits in the top 8.1% healthiest ZIPs nationally (2,567th) and the top 19% of California (321st).
The profile cuts both ways, and the readings bear that out: modeled high blood pressure resides in the bottom 0.03% nationally, diabetes lies in the bottom 0.2% nationally, and coronary heart disease settles in the bottom 0.07% nationally. Modeled obesity stands in the bottom 0.2% nationally, stroke is in the bottom 0.10% nationally, and hearing disability rests in the bottom 0.03% nationally. Modeled mobility disability sits in the bottom 0.04% nationally. Working the other way, modeled binge drinking registers in the top 0.7% nationally, and poverty lands in the top 0.4% nationally. Modeled pfas resides in the top 0.4% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, poverty runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, pfas is the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down; here a modeled estimate of the chance a private well contains them. ZIP 94556, 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 1.98 years of 83.5, 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
