OKLAHOMA CITY - A new report says Woods County has the healthiest residents in Oklahoma and Latimer County has those with the poorest health.
The report released Wednesday by the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation ranks the overall health of the counties in all 50 states.
It ranks Woods, Beaver, Payne, Cleveland and Texas counties as Oklahoma's healthiest. The least healthy in the report are Latimer, Johnston, McCurtain, Greer and Seminole.
The report bases the health rate on the rate of people dying before age 75, the percent of people who report being in fair or poor health, the numbers of days people report being in poor physical and poor mental health, and the rate of low-birthweight infants.
