Overall, Mill City, Oregon (ZIP 97360) lands in the bottom 37% nationally (20,116th) and the bottom 39% of Oregon (248th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
A number of measures mark where this area is under strain: modeled air-toxics cancer risk sits in the top 0.2% nationally, and distance to a nursing home is in the top 2.7% nationally. Crowded housing settles in the top 6.1% nationally, and distance to a community health center resides in the top 6.8% nationally. Unemployment registers in the top 7.3% nationally, and modeled fine-particle rests in the top 8.0% nationally. On the brighter side, elder services stands in the top 3.0% nationally, modeled humid heat lies in the bottom 8.5% nationally, and modeled expected annual loss lands in the bottom 9.1% nationally. Modeled extreme heat sits at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs.
Set beside the nearby areas, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. A note on the terms: air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. For a healthier nearby comparison, ZIP 97374, about 2.5 miles away, ranks better 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 0.95 years of 78.2, 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.
