Health Grade

What’s behind Centerville’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Centerville is healthier than 37% of U.S. towns, #119 of 261 in Georgia. Smoking holds the grade up (fewer adults who smoke than 56% of U.S. towns); diabetes pulls it down (better than 21%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $52K–$86K (10,453)Healthier than 45%

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). Centerville’s median household income is $68,922; among the 10,453 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($52K–$86K), it’s healthier than 45%, so it sits below most towns with similar incomes, too.

A rough placement. CDC’s likely ranges are wide here: with every estimate at one end or the other, Centerville could be anywhere from D to B+. The letter shows with “≈”.
