What’s behind Hypoluxo’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Hypoluxo is healthier than 74% of U.S. towns, #176 of 636 in Florida. Obesity holds the grade up (fewer adults with obesity than 94% of U.S. towns); diabetes pulls it down (better than 34%).

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). Hypoluxo’s median household income is $78,214; among the 10,819 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($59K–$98K), it’s healthier than 85%, about where its income would put it.

A fairly firm grade. With every estimate at the unfavorable or the favorable end of CDC’s likely range, Hypoluxo could be anywhere from B− to A.
