Full methodology ›The read
By the composite measure, Krebs, Oklahoma (ZIP 74554) sits in the bottom 24% nationally (24,276th) and the top 32% of Oklahoma (200th).
The readings split fairly evenly between strengths and concerns: modeled expected annual loss settles in the bottom 12.9% nationally, and walkability stands in the top 13.0% nationally. Working the other way, distance to an emergency room is in the top 1.2% nationally, modeled industrial-pollution burden rests in the top 3.4% nationally, and modeled short sleep sits in the top 7.5% nationally. Households without a vehicle registers in the top 9.2% nationally, and modeled extreme heat lands in the top 10.9% nationally. Homeownership resides in the bottom 12.3% nationally, and household income lies in the bottom 6.1% nationally. Poverty settles in the top 15.0% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, industrial-pollution burden runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. No nearby ZIP ranks healthier overall than this one.

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 1.38 years of 77.4, 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.
