In its overall standing, Nicoma Park, Oklahoma (ZIP 73066) lands in the bottom 15% nationally (27,124th) and the bottom 46% of Oklahoma (343rd).
Reading across the data, the real pressures come first: modeled pfas settles in the top 0.4% nationally, modeled cognitive disability is in the top 6.6% nationally, and homeownership sits in the bottom 6.6% nationally. Modeled extreme heat lands in the top 7.5% nationally. Fiber broadband lies at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. More encouragingly, housing-cost burden stands at the national minimum, and home broadband subscription rests at the national maximum. Modeled disaster risk registers in the bottom 3.3% nationally. Unemployment resides at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Households without a vehicle settles at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs.
Against the wider neighborhood, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put simply, 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. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. On the overall standing, ZIP 73020, just across the boundary, ranks healthier.

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 1.32 years of 77.9, 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. How distance is measured
