What’s behind Muscoy’s grade
On seven CDC estimates for adults, Muscoy is healthier than 8% of U.S. towns, #802 of 847 in California. Smoking holds the grade up (fewer adults who smoke than 30% 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). Muscoy’s median household income is $71,458; among the 10,625 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($54K–$89K), it’s healthier than 3%, so it sits below most towns with similar incomes, too.
