Full methodology ›The read
Working from the partial data available, for Shamrock, Oklahoma (ZIP 74068), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
On the measures in hand, a few readings come through: modeled disaster risk resides in the bottom 2.9% nationally, and expected annual loss sits in the bottom 6.2% nationally. Unemployment stands at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Households without a vehicle resides at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Against that, distance to a community health center sits in the top 5.7% nationally, and household income stands in the bottom 1.5% nationally. Modeled extreme heat resides in the top 9.0% nationally, and poverty sits in the top 9.3% nationally. Home broadband subscription stands in the bottom 9.4% nationally, and modeled arsenic resides in the top 9.5% nationally.
Defined simply, for reference, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark.

| Life expectancy at birth | 77.2 yr ± 2.23 | 78.9 yr (74.7–82.8) n=31,308 | 77.2 yr (73.6–81.3) n=638 |
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 2.23 years of 77.2, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
