The modeled probability that PFAS “forever chemicals” would be detected in untreated groundwater in this area, the source private wells draw on.

The number of places for physical recreation — gyms, sports, and fitness venues — inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.

Full methodology ›The read
Overall, Langlois, Oregon (ZIP 97450) lands in the bottom 23% nationally (24,804th) and the bottom 18% of Oregon (332nd).
A number of measures mark where this area is under strain: modeled coronary heart disease lies in the top 2.8% nationally, and unemployment lands in the top 3.3% nationally. Modeled hearing disability sits in the top 5.6% nationally, and stroke is in the top 6.0% nationally. Modeled disaster risk settles in the top 5.9% nationally. On the brighter side, modeled humid heat resides in the bottom 0.2% nationally, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility registers in the top 2.5% nationally, and modeled pfas rests in the bottom 2.9% nationally. Recreation stands in the top 3.8% nationally, and modeled air-toxics cancer risk lies in the bottom 6.5% nationally.
A note on the terms: 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. Pfas is the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down; here a modeled estimate of the chance a private well contains them. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. For a healthier nearby comparison, ZIP 97411, just across the boundary, 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 1.52 years of 78.7, 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.
