On the composite measure, Daisy, Oklahoma (ZIP 74540) stands in the bottom 3.7% nationally (30,888th) and the bottom 5.9% of Oklahoma (597th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
A number of readings press hard on the profile and set its tone: modeled hearing disability lands in the top 0.7% nationally, and mobility disability settles in the top 1.7% nationally. Modeled stroke rests in the top 3.2% nationally, and coronary heart disease lands in the top 2.6% nationally. Modeled independent living disability settles in the top 4.5% nationally, vision disability rests in the top 5.5% nationally, and diabetes lands in the top 5.2% nationally. Distance to a nursing home settles in the top 4.5% nationally. On the brighter side, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility rests in the top 3.7% nationally, and modeled binge drinking lands in the bottom 3.4% nationally.
For clarity, 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. ZIP 74536, just across the boundary, ranks better overall among the ZIPs nearby.

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 2.36 years of 84.8, 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.
