A number of measures mark what daily life looks like here: walkability resides in the bottom 1.4% nationally, and distance to a nursing home registers in the top 1.9% nationally. Distance to an emergency room rests in the top 2.5% nationally, and modeled energy burden stands in the top 2.8% nationally. Slow internet speeds lies in the top 3.4% nationally, modeled coronary heart disease lands in the top 6.5% nationally, and modeled hearing disability sits in the top 9.4% nationally. On the brighter side, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is in the top 3.6% nationally, modeled humid heat settles in the bottom 3.9% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site resides in the top 8.9% nationally.
Read against the ZIPs closest to it, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To spell things out, 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. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Energy burden is the share of household income that goes to home energy bills. Close by, ZIP 97001, just across the boundary, ranks healthier 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 1.36 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.
