Full methodology ›The read
In its overall standing, Detroit, Oregon (ZIP 97342) lands in the bottom 27% nationally (23,296th) and the bottom 24% of Oregon (310th).
Several serious readings shape the profile and deserve first mention: modeled air-toxics cancer risk sits in the top 0.05% nationally, distance to a nursing home lands in the top 1.3% nationally, and distance to an emergency room lies in the top 2.5% nationally. Poverty stands in the top 2.6% nationally, modeled fine-particle rests in the top 2.7% nationally, and crowded housing registers in the top 3.0% nationally. Distance to a community health center resides in the top 4.4% nationally, and walkability settles in the bottom 5.5% nationally. On the better side, park land is in the top 0.3% nationally, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility sits in the top 2.7% nationally.
Against the wider neighborhood, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put simply, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. 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. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. On the overall standing, ZIP 97350, just across the boundary, ranks healthier.

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 2.45 years of 78.8, 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.
