What’s behind Farmersville’s grade
On seven CDC estimates for adults, Farmersville is healthier than 7% of U.S. towns, #806 of 847 in California. Smoking holds the grade up (fewer adults who smoke than 31% of U.S. towns); fair or poor health pulls it down (near the bottom of U.S. towns).
Health estimates follow income closely across the country: towns with higher household incomes usually score higher (a correlation of 0.77 across 21,157 graded towns). Farmersville’s median household income is $60,804; among the 9,131 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($46K–$76K), it’s healthier than 7%, so it sits below most towns with similar incomes, too.
