Locust Grove, Oklahoma (ZIP 74352) ranks in the bottom 6.7% nationally (29,918th) and the bottom 18% of Oklahoma (519th).
Several signals sit on each side of the ledger here: modeled arsenic lands in the bottom 6.1% nationally, and childcare settles in the top 10.9% nationally. Working the other way, modeled mammography rests in the bottom 2.3% nationally, and hearing disability lands in the top 4.2% nationally. Modeled mobility disability settles in the top 8.1% nationally, colon screening rests in the bottom 8.8% nationally, and cognitive disability lands in the top 10.3% nationally. Modeled tooth loss settles in the top 11.2% nationally, independent living disability rests in the top 11.3% nationally, and high blood pressure lands in the top 10.8% nationally.

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 0.88 years of 73.8, 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.
