CDC PLACES 2025 release: modeled estimates for adults, not counts; “higher” and “lower” mean the New Hampshire figure falls outside Danville’s likely range; Danville’s figures come from ZIP codes 03819, 03826, which may reach past town lines; at the ends of CDC’s ranges the grade could be anywhere from B− to A+.
