Full methodology ›The read
By its overall health score, Fort Supply, Oklahoma (ZIP 73841) lands in the bottom 34% nationally (21,144th) and the top 20% of Oklahoma (127th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
Where this area bears down hardest, the measures speak first: modeled colon screening rests in the bottom 1.3% nationally, and distance to a community health center is in the top 0.5% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise stands in the top 0.9% nationally, and nitrate settles in the top 4.8% nationally. Modeled binge drinking lies in the top 6.6% nationally, extreme heat resides in the top 7.1% nationally, and pfas lands in the top 7.3% nationally. On the encouraging side, housing-cost burden registers in the bottom 4.8% nationally, and modeled high cholesterol sits in the bottom 4.7% nationally. Households without a vehicle rests at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs.
Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, loud transportation noise runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, nitrate is a groundwater compound from fertilizer, manure, and sewage, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. 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. Distance to a community health center is a federally funded (HRSA) community health center serving everyone regardless of ability to pay. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 73852, about 13 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 0.83 years of 76.2, 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.
