Full methodology ›The read
By its overall health score, ZIP 97702, one of several in Bend, Oregon lands in the top 14.8% healthiest ZIPs nationally (4,725th) and the top 4.7% of Oregon (19th).
The measures split the difference for this area: modeled short sleep is in the bottom 0.9% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site stands in the top 4.5% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden settles in the bottom 4.8% nationally, and recreation lies in the top 6.3% nationally. Modeled obesity resides in the bottom 9.4% nationally, modeled humid heat lands in the bottom 7.8% nationally, and subsidized affordable housing registers in the top 8.5% nationally. Against that, modeled disaster risk sits in the top 2.6% nationally, fine-particle rests in the top 5.4% nationally, and air-toxics cancer risk is in the top 7.9% nationally.
Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 97759, about 11 miles away.

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 0.49 years of 81.9, 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. How distance is measured
