Industrial-pollution burden

ST94thUS93rdDefinition & 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.

The average number of days per year with a modeled daily high of at least 95 °F.

Higher is healthier
ST92ndUS86thDefinition & source ›
The number of public-transit stops inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.
Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.
Full methodology ›Uninsured (under 65)
15.1%

Lower is healthier
ST93rdUS89thDefinition & source ›
The estimated share of adults aged 18–64 with no current health-insurance coverage.

The share of this ZIP’s land area that is public parkland.
Full methodology ›Fatal road crashes

Lower is healthier
ST5thUS18thDefinition & 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 ›Coronary heart disease

The estimated share of adults who have been told by a health professional that they have coronary heart disease or angina.
Full methodology ›The read
In its overall standing, ZIP 74134, one of several in Tulsa, Oklahoma lands in the bottom 37% nationally (20,228th) and the top 17% of Oklahoma (108th).
This area's measures are easy to read as a mixed set: modeled transportation noise stands in the bottom 10.1% nationally. Distance to a community health center rests at the national minimum, shared with about 23% of ZIPs. Set against that, modeled industrial-pollution burden registers in the top 6.8% nationally, and extreme heat resides in the top 9.4% nationally. Modeled colon screening settles in the bottom 9.1% nationally, and crowded housing is in the top 10.7% nationally. Modeled utility shutoff sits in the top 10.8% nationally, and housing insecurity lands in the top 11.6% nationally. Modeled fine-particle lies in the top 13.2% nationally, and food insecurity stands in the top 13.7% nationally.
Against the wider neighborhood, park land runs far higher 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. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. On the overall standing, ZIP 74012, just across the boundary, 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 0.60 years of 78.1, 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
