What’s behind Goodview’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Goodview is healthier than 82% of U.S. towns, #93 of 271 in Minnesota. All seven estimates beat the typical U.S. town. The strongest is physical distress (fewer adults with frequent physical distress than 88% of towns); the weakest is obesity, still better than 64%.

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $56K–$93K (10,853)Healthier than 94%

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). Goodview’s median household income is $74,712; among the 10,853 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($56K–$93K), it’s healthier than 94%, about where its income would put it.

Most Minnesota towns score higher on these estimates than towns elsewhere, so within the state Goodview is healthier than 66% of graded towns, against 82% nationally.

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