In its overall standing, ZIP 74114, one of several in Tulsa, Oklahoma lands in the top 21% healthiest ZIPs nationally (6,803rd) and the top 1.8% of Oklahoma (11th).
Reading the numbers as a whole, this area's strong points come through first: dental providers sits in the top 3.5% nationally, walkability lands in the top 6.9% nationally, and physicians lies in the top 7.1% nationally. Home broadband subscription stands in the top 7.8% nationally, transit rests in the top 8.5% nationally, and recreation registers in the top 8.7% nationally. Set against that, modeled industrial-pollution burden resides in the top 2.8% nationally, and air-toxics cancer risk settles in the top 7.9% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure is in the top 8.6% nationally, and modeled extreme heat sits in the top 9.0% nationally.
Against the wider neighborhood, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put simply, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Outer-floodplain exposure is land with a lower but real 1-in-500 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "500-year floodplain". On the overall standing, ZIP 74137, about 5.0 miles away, ranks healthier.

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 0.68 years of 78.8, 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
