What defines this ZIP

Natural-disaster risk

in the top 1.4% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST95th
US99th
Definition & source ›

This area’s national rank on its single highest non-flood natural hazard — such as wildfire, tornado, or earthquake — in FEMA’s modeled National Risk Index; flooding is shown separately.

Distance to a Superfund site

In this ZIP

at the national minimum

Higher is healthier

ST1st
US1st
Definition & source ›

The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest Superfund site — an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has listed for cleanup.

Full methodology ›

Fatal road crashes

48.6 per 100,000 residents per year

in the top 4.3% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST94th
US96th
Definition & source ›

The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.

A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.

Full methodology ›

Nitrate in drinking water

1.7%

in the top 5.8% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST87th
US94th
Definition & source ›

The modeled share of this area’s domestic-well groundwater at or above the federal nitrate limit of 10 milligrams per liter.

A modeled likelihood for untreated groundwater, the source drawn on by private wells, which are federally unregulated. It is not a measurement of treated water delivered by a public system, and it is not a test of any individual well.

Full methodology ›

Dry extreme heat

68.4 days/year

in the top 6.1% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST79th
US94th
Definition & source ›

The average number of days per year with a modeled daily high of at least 95 °F.

Full methodology ›

Colon-cancer screening

in the bottom 7.6% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST29th

Definition & source ›

The estimated share of adults aged 45–75 who are up to date on colorectal-cancer screening.

Full methodology ›

Recreation access

0.99 per 1,000 residents

in the top 9.2% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST86th
US91st
Definition & source ›

The number of places for physical recreation — gyms, sports, and fitness venues — inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.

Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.

Full methodology ›

Dental provider access

0.86 per 1,000 residents

in the top 9.3% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST79th
US91st
Definition & source ›

The number of dental offices located inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.

Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.

The read

By the composite health measure, ZIP 95304, one of several in Tracy, California ranks in the top 29% healthiest ZIPs nationally (9,283rd) and the top 44% of California (762nd).

continue reading

The signals balance out across the profile, strengths against concerns: recreation stands in the top 9.2% nationally, and dental providers lies in the top 9.3% nationally. Modeled high blood pressure lands in the bottom 7.5% nationally. Set against that, modeled disaster risk sits in the top 1.4% nationally, distance to a Superfund site is at the national minimum, and fatal road crashes settles in the top 4.3% nationally. Modeled nitrate resides in the top 5.8% nationally, extreme heat registers in the top 6.1% nationally, and colon screening rests in the bottom 7.6% nationally. Modeled fine-particle stands in the top 9.5% nationally.

To spell things out, 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. Nitrate is a groundwater compound from fertilizer, manure, and sewage, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Close by, ZIP 94505, just across the boundary, ranks healthier overall.

Findings that name this ZIP

One of our published findings lists this ZIP code. Each finding compares one published measure against a stated benchmark, and names only the ZIP codes whose estimates are reliable enough to rank. See all surprising findings.

  • Heavy environment, light chronic burden

    Where the environment and chronic illness point in opposite directions

    Environmental-hazard standing 26.1; chronic-disease standing 92.2 (top 10%) — 66 points apart, heavier on the environment than it is on chronic illness.

    Ranked #16,031 of the 18,187 ZIP codes this finding names, ordered by the gap from cleanest environment to heaviest chronic burden, highest first.

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 0.78 years of 80.6, 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
