Health Grade

What’s behind Annville’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Annville is healthier than 6% of U.S. towns. Obesity holds the grade up (fewer adults with obesity than 20% of U.S. towns); smoking pulls it down (near the bottom of U.S. towns).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $42K–$70K (7,801)Healthier than 8%

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). Annville’s median household income is $56,250; among the 7,801 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($42K–$70K), it’s healthier than 8%, so it sits below most towns with similar incomes, too.

A fairly firm grade. With every estimate at the unfavorable or the favorable end of CDC’s likely range, Annville could be anywhere from D− to C−.
