The number of places for physical recreation — gyms, sports, and fitness venues — 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.

Full methodology ›The read
Overall, Lorane, Oregon (ZIP 97451) places in the top 33% healthiest ZIPs nationally (10,701st) and the top 22% of Oregon (91st).
The measures fall on both sides for this area, fairly evenly: recreation lands in the top 0.9% nationally, and modeled tree cover stands in the top 3.5% nationally. Modeled short sleep registers in the bottom 4.6% nationally, and humid heat settles in the bottom 6.4% nationally. Households without a vehicle sits at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility lies in the top 9.7% nationally, and modeled binge drinking rests in the bottom 8.5% nationally. Pulling the other way, modeled air-toxics cancer risk resides in the top 7.9% nationally, unemployment is in the top 8.4% nationally, and walkability lands in the bottom 10.1% nationally.
For readers new to these terms, 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. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. Among nearby ZIPs, the nearest healthier one overall is ZIP 97405, just across the boundary.

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 2.72 years of 80.9, 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.
