Full methodology ›The read
On the composite measure, Weott, California (ZIP 95571) stands in the bottom 18% nationally (26,267th) and the bottom 13.7% of California (1,484th).
Several readings make the pressure on this area plain: unemployment settles at the national maximum, and poverty rests at the national maximum. Homeownership lands at the national minimum, and distance to a nursing home settles in the top 5.3% nationally. Modeled colon screening rests in the bottom 6.9% nationally. On the encouraging side, modeled tree cover lands in the top 0.8% nationally, housing-cost burden settles at the national minimum, and modeled humid heat rests in the bottom 2.0% nationally. Home broadband subscription lands at the national maximum, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility settles in the top 7.1% nationally.
Set beside the wider area around it, unemployment runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For clarity, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is a plant handling large amounts of hazardous chemicals that must file an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. ZIP 95545, just across the boundary, ranks better overall among the ZIPs nearby.

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 75.3, 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.
