Full methodology ›The read
By its overall health score, Terlton, Oklahoma (ZIP 74081) lands in the bottom 13.2% nationally (27,863rd) and the bottom 39% of Oklahoma (388th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The burdens that read clearest in the data come first: modeled hearing disability resides in the top 6.0% nationally, and extreme heat lands in the top 8.2% nationally. Slow internet speeds registers in the top 8.3% nationally, and unemployment sits in the top 8.6% nationally. Modeled mammography rests in the bottom 9.4% nationally, and distance to a community health center is in the top 13.9% nationally. Better still, pharmacy stands in the top 0.8% nationally, outpatient settles in the top 6.3% nationally, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility lies in the top 8.6% nationally. Modeled tree cover resides in the top 13.4% nationally.
Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, pharmacy runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, 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. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. 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 74020, 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 1.20 years of 79.0, 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.
