Industrial-pollution burden
in the top 6.2% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST94thUS94thDefinition & source ›
The EPA’s modeled screening score for industrial chemical releases, weighting the amounts released by their toxicity and how many people live nearby — a relative comparison score, not a measured exposure.
Full methodology ›Dry extreme heat
51.7 days/year
in the top 8.9% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST33rdUS91stDefinition & source ›
The average number of days per year with a modeled daily high of at least 95 °F.
Full methodology ›Lithium in drinking water
10 µg/L
in the bottom 9.5% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST8thUS9thDefinition & source ›
The average detected level of lithium — a natural trace metal with no federal drinking-water limit yet — across the public water systems serving this ZIP, in micrograms per liter.
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 ›Fine-particle (PM2.5) exceedance
0.82%
in the top 11.7% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST92ndUS88thDefinition & source ›
The share of days in the year when modeled fine-particle (PM2.5) pollution was above the EPA’s daily limit of 35 micrograms per cubic meter.
Full methodology ›Fatal road crashes

in the bottom 25% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST9thUS25thDefinition & source ›
The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.
A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.

Full methodology ›The read
On balance, and by the composite measure, Collinsville, Oklahoma (ZIP 74021) ranks in the bottom 48% nationally (16,532nd) and the top 10.8% of Oklahoma (68th).
Neither strongly one way nor the other, the measures sit mixed: lithium in drinking water sits in the bottom 9.5% nationally. Distance to a nursing home rests at the national minimum, shared with about 27% of ZIPs. Lead in tap water is in the bottom 18% nationally. Against that, modeled industrial-pollution burden stands in the top 6.2% nationally, extreme heat settles in the top 8.9% nationally, and fine-particle lies in the top 11.7% nationally. Slow internet speeds resides in the top 13.8% nationally, floodplain exposure lands in the top 17% nationally, and modeled expected annual loss registers in the top 17% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure sits in the top 18% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs it borders, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plainer terms, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Lithium in drinking water is a natural metal that dissolves into some groundwater and has no federal drinking-water limit yet. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. For a healthier nearby ZIP overall, look to ZIP 74055, 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 0.60 years of 78.4, 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. How distance is measured
