What’s behind Warren Township’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Warren Township is healthier than 33% of U.S. towns, #293 of 589 in Indiana. No exercise holds the grade up (fewer adults who get no exercise than 52% of U.S. towns); smoking pulls it down (better than 26%).

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). Warren Township’s median household income is $103,548; among the 8,039 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($78K–$129K), it’s healthier than 9%, less than its income alone would suggest.

Few Indiana towns score lower on these estimates than towns elsewhere, so within the state Warren Township is healthier than 50% of graded towns, against 33% nationally.

A rough placement. CDC’s likely ranges are wide here: with every estimate at one end or the other, Warren Township could be anywhere from D to B+. The letter shows with “≈”. These are ZIP code figures (ZIP 46120,46135), weighted by land area, which can reach past town lines.
