What defines this place in the numbers is worth naming first: distance to a nursing home registers in the top 1.4% nationally, and walkability rests in the bottom 1.8% nationally. Slow internet speeds stands in the top 3.6% nationally, and modeled fine-particle lies in the top 5.6% nationally. Distance to an emergency room lands in the top 5.8% nationally, and modeled arsenic sits in the top 6.4% nationally. More encouragingly, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is in the top 0.7% nationally, modeled pfas settles in the bottom 2.3% nationally, and park land resides in the top 3.6% nationally. Distance to a Superfund site registers in the top 4.6% nationally.

Read against the ZIPs closest to it, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility runs far higher 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. 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. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Close by, ZIP 97751, less than a tenth of a mile away, ranks healthier overall.

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 1.48 years of 84.3, 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.
