Full methodology ›The read
Judged by its overall standing, Grandview, Washington (ZIP 98930) sits in the bottom 29% nationally (22,813th) and the bottom 10.0% of Washington (523rd), based on limited data; treat as directional.
A few readings account for most of this area's strain: modeled uninsured lands in the top 1.7% nationally, nitrate rests in the top 0.4% nationally, and colon screening settles in the bottom 3.4% nationally. Modeled fine-particle lands in the top 2.4% nationally, tree cover rests at the national minimum, and fair or poor health settles in the top 6.6% nationally. Modeled vision disability lands in the top 6.9% nationally, and crowded housing rests in the top 5.9% nationally. Modeled arsenic settles in the top 8.8% nationally, and cognitive disability lands in the top 9.8% nationally.
Placed beside its immediate neighbors, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put plainly, nitrate is a groundwater compound from fertilizer, manure, and sewage, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. Arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 99350, just across the boundary.

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 1.68 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.
