Full methodology ›The read
Hauula, Hawaii (ZIP 96717), overall, ranks in the top 46% healthiest ZIPs nationally (14,844th) and the bottom 18% of Hawaii (75th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
Reading the numbers as a whole, the picture lands somewhere in between: transit stands in the top 0.8% nationally, modeled air-toxics cancer risk rests in the bottom 2.8% nationally, and park land registers in the top 3.1% nationally. Pharmacy resides in the top 9.7% nationally. On the other side, modeled short sleep settles in the top 0.2% nationally, and crowded housing is in the top 2.3% nationally. Modeled binge drinking sits in the top 2.9% nationally, and housing-cost burden lands in the top 3.1% nationally. Modeled disaster risk lies in the top 3.3% nationally, and homeownership stands in the bottom 11.0% nationally.
Measured against the nearby ZIPs, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. ZIP 96730, just across the boundary, comes out 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 0.92 years of 79.4, 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.
