What’s behind Naranja’s grade
On seven CDC estimates for adults, Naranja is healthier than 14% of U.S. towns, #563 of 636 in Florida. Obesity holds the grade up (fewer adults with obesity than 58% of U.S. towns); no exercise pulls it down (better than 3%).
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). Naranja’s median household income is $53,984; among the 7,112 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($40K–$67K), it’s healthier than 27%, so it sits below most towns with similar incomes, too.
Where Naranja compares well: high cholesterol (adults screened in 5 years), 32% (U.S. 37.1%); arthritis, 18.9% (U.S. 25.3%); cancer, other than skin cancer, 4% (U.S. 7.9%).
