On seven CDC estimates for adults, Senoia is healthier than 82% of U.S. towns, #35 of 261 in Georgia. All seven estimates beat the typical U.S. town. The strongest is fair or poor health (fewer adults who rate their health fair or poor than 86% of towns); the weakest is obesity, still better than 66%.

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $94K–$156K (5,067)Healthier than 54%

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). Senoia’s median household income is $124,964; among the 5,067 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($94K–$156K), it’s healthier than 54%, 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, Senoia could be anywhere from B− to A+.
