By the composite measure, Pilot Hill, California (ZIP 95664) sits in the top 19% healthiest ZIPs nationally (6,072nd) and the top 34% of California (591st).

continue reading

The profile cuts both ways, and the readings bear that out: home broadband subscription is at the national maximum, lead in tap water rests at the national minimum, and modeled utility shutoff sits in the bottom 5.7% nationally. Modeled tooth loss registers in the bottom 2.2% nationally. Households without a vehicle lands at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Poverty resides in the bottom 9.2% nationally. Working the other way, modeled fine-particle lies in the top 1.6% nationally, and air-toxics cancer risk settles in the top 2.0% nationally. Unemployment stands in the top 3.5% nationally. Fiber broadband is at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs.

Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. Air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. ZIP 95630, 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 15.3; chronic-disease standing 66.2 — 51 points apart, heavier on the environment than it is on chronic illness.

    Ranked #14,479 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 3.92 years of 90.4, 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.
