Lower is healthier

US1st
Definition & source ›

The lead level at the 90th percentile of tap-water samples reported by the public water systems serving this ZIP, in parts per billion — the EPA requires action above 15 ppb.

Measured from EPA records for the public water systems that serve this ZIP. Households on private wells — roughly 30% of the US population — are not covered by this measure, and this figure says nothing about their water.

The number of affordable rental units in this ZIP supported by the federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credit program.

US92nd
Definition & source ›

The number of public-transit stops 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 measure, Kapolei, Hawaii (ZIP 96707) sits in the top 19% healthiest ZIPs nationally (6,104th) and the top 46% of Hawaii (42nd), based on limited data; treat as directional.

continue reading

The profile cuts both ways, and the readings bear that out: lead in tap water registers at the national minimum, subsidized affordable housing lands in the top 5.7% nationally, and transit resides in the top 8.0% nationally. Modeled air-toxics cancer risk lies in the bottom 8.0% nationally. Working the other way, modeled short sleep settles in the top 0.4% nationally, and disaster risk stands in the top 2.4% nationally. Slow internet speeds is in the top 2.6% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site rests in the bottom 6.6% nationally. Crowded housing sits in the top 7.9% nationally, and modeled binge drinking registers in the top 7.9% nationally.

Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. ZIP 96706, just across the boundary, ranks healthier overall.

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 0.93 years of 82.2, 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.
