Full methodology ›The read
In overall standing, Lahoma, Oklahoma (ZIP 73754) comes out in the bottom 22% nationally (24,866th) and the top 35% of Oklahoma (220th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The profile opens on the burdens that define it most: modeled nitrate lies in the top 0.2% nationally, mammography sits in the bottom 4.5% nationally, and extreme heat settles in the top 6.0% nationally. Modeled obesity registers in the top 11.3% nationally, and lead in tap water stands in the top 15% nationally. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility lands at the national minimum, shared with about 31% of ZIPs. More positively, housing-cost burden is in the bottom 5.8% nationally, and fiber broadband resides in the top 6.1% nationally. Distance to a Superfund site rests in the top 6.4% nationally, and unemployment lies in the bottom 15% nationally.
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. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. The nearest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 73703, 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 0.74 years of 77.4, 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.
