On seven CDC estimates for adults, Hapeville is healthier than 36% of U.S. towns, #122 of 261 in Georgia. Obesity holds the grade up (fewer adults with obesity than 67% of U.S. towns); fair or poor health 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). Hapeville’s median household income is $95,714; among the 9,204 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($72K–$120K), it’s healthier than 16%, less than its income alone would suggest.
