Overall, Pond Creek, Oklahoma (ZIP 73766) places in the bottom 15.0% nationally (27,285th) and the bottom 45% of Oklahoma (349th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The measures fall on both sides for this area, fairly evenly: recreation sits in the top 10.1% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site lies in the top 12.6% nationally. Pulling the other way, modeled extreme heat rests in the top 6.0% nationally, and mammography resides in the bottom 6.7% nationally. Distance to a nursing home is in the top 11.4% nationally, modeled hearing disability lands in the top 11.8% nationally, and home broadband subscription stands in the bottom 13.1% nationally. Distance to an emergency room registers in the top 13.6% nationally, and modeled fine-particle settles in the top 14.9% nationally. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility sits at the national minimum, shared with about 31% of ZIPs.
For readers new to these terms, distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. 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. Among nearby ZIPs, the nearest healthier one 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 1.66 years of 76.8, 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.
