Measured from EPA records for the public water systems that serve this ZIP. Households on private wells — roughly 30% of the US population — are not covered by this measure, and this figure says nothing about their water.

Full methodology ›The read
ZIP 74003, one of several in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, on the composite measure, lands in the bottom 5.6% nationally (30,281st) and the bottom 13.9% of Oklahoma (546th).
The main burdens in the data show plainly and lead the picture: distance to a Superfund site settles at the national minimum, modeled mammography stands in the bottom 2.9% nationally, and modeled obesity is in the top 2.1% nationally. Modeled cognitive disability rests in the top 5.1% nationally, PFAS in drinking water sits at the national maximum, and modeled independent living disability registers in the top 7.1% nationally. Modeled colon screening lands in the bottom 7.1% nationally, and utility shutoff resides in the top 7.6% nationally. More positively, childcare lies in the top 3.2% nationally, and mental-health providers settles in the top 3.6% nationally.
In everyday language, distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. PFAS in drinking water is the family of man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. A healthier neighbor overall sits at ZIP 74002, 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 0.81 years of 75.2, 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. How distance is measured
