What’s behind Henryville’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Henryville is healthier than 26% of U.S. towns. Diabetes holds the grade up (fewer adults with diabetes than 54% of U.S. towns); obesity pulls it down (better than 4%).

Less healthyHealthier
U.S. towns with similar incomes, $54K–$90K (10,643)Healthier than 24%

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). Henryville’s median household income is $71,667; among the 10,643 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($54K–$90K), it’s healthier than 24%, 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, Henryville could be anywhere from D to B. The letter shows with “≈”.
