What’s behind Spring Hill’s grade
On seven CDC estimates for adults, Spring Hill is healthier than 34% of U.S. towns, #440 of 636 in Florida. Smoking holds the grade up (fewer adults who smoke than 52% of U.S. towns); diabetes pulls it down (better than 17%).
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). Spring Hill’s median household income is $68,432; among the 10,380 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($51K–$86K), it’s healthier than 41%, so it sits below most towns with similar incomes, too.
At 119,983 residents, Spring Hill is graded like any town, from one citywide estimate; its rank among the 395 U.S. cities over 100,000 is the fairer comparison.
