Orlando, Oklahoma (ZIP 73073), by its overall standing, sits in the bottom 38% nationally (19,871st) and the top 17% of Oklahoma (105th).
Both sides of the picture show up plainly in this area's numbers: housing-cost burden settles in the bottom 5.0% nationally, poverty registers in the bottom 9.6% nationally, and modeled industrial-pollution burden stands in the bottom 15% nationally. By contrast, modeled nitrate lands in the top 4.5% nationally, slow internet speeds is in the top 4.6% nationally, and modeled extreme heat resides in the top 6.3% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise rests in the top 8.1% nationally, and transportation noise lies in the top 10.7% nationally. Modeled mammography sits in the bottom 10.7% nationally, and hearing disability settles in the top 16% nationally.
Held up against its neighbors, slow internet speeds runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined in plain terms, nitrate is a groundwater compound from fertilizer, manure, and sewage, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. The nearest ZIP ranking healthier overall is ZIP 73027, about 2.0 miles away.

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 0.95 years of 78.7, 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.
