This area's pressures are easy to read across the measures: modeled air-toxics cancer risk stands in the top 0.4% nationally, tooth loss rests in the top 3.8% nationally, and cognitive disability registers in the top 3.6% nationally. Modeled colon screening resides in the bottom 4.4% nationally, unemployment settles in the top 3.5% nationally, and crowded housing is in the top 3.9% nationally. Fatal road crashes sits in the top 4.6% nationally, and modeled independent living disability lands in the top 6.4% nationally. On the brighter side, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility lies in the top 1.8% nationally, and modeled industrial-pollution burden stands in the bottom 3.5% nationally.

Measured against the nearby ZIPs, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, 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. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. ZIP 97037, just across the boundary, comes out healthier overall.

“Share” is how much of this ZIP’s score the domain accounts for. Percentages are rounded; higher is healthier in every domain. How the score works, and who it compares you with ›

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 1.49 years of 79.6, 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.
