Overall, Monument, Oregon (ZIP 97864) lands in the bottom 9.7% nationally (28,962nd) and the bottom 2.5% of Oregon (397th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
What defines this place in the numbers is worth naming first: modeled coronary heart disease rests in the top 0.6% nationally, and stroke stands in the top 1.6% nationally. Modeled hearing disability lies in the top 1.1% nationally, and distance to a nursing home lands in the top 1.4% nationally. Modeled mobility disability sits in the top 2.9% nationally, home broadband subscription is in the bottom 2.5% nationally, and modeled diabetes settles in the top 4.2% nationally. Walkability resides in the bottom 3.1% nationally. More encouragingly, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility registers in the top 2.9% nationally, and modeled humid heat rests in the bottom 3.5% nationally.
Set beside the nearby areas, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. A note on the terms: 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. For a healthier nearby comparison, ZIP 97836, just across the boundary, ranks better 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 1.55 years of 78.5, 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.
