What’s behind Centerville’s grade
On seven CDC estimates for adults, Centerville is healthier than 16% of U.S. towns, #457 of 589 in Indiana. Obesity holds the grade up (fewer adults with obesity than 36% of U.S. towns); mental distress pulls it down (better than 9%).

Centerville’s median household income is $49,688; among the 5,683 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($37K–$62K), it’s healthier than 41%, so it sits below most towns with similar incomes, too.
