Health Grade

What’s behind Juno Beach’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Juno Beach is healthier than 86% of U.S. towns, #84 of 636 in Florida. Mental distress holds the grade up (fewer adults with frequent mental distress than almost every U.S. town); diabetes pulls it down (better than 33%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $63K–$105K (10,469)Healthier than 94%

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). Juno Beach’s median household income is $83,821; among the 10,469 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($63K–$105K), it’s healthier than 94%, 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, Juno Beach could be anywhere from B+ to A+.
