What’s behind Stagecoach’s grade
On seven CDC estimates for adults, Stagecoach is healthier than 18% of U.S. towns. Obesity holds the grade up (fewer adults with obesity than 44% of U.S. towns); physical distress pulls it down (better than 7%).
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). Stagecoach’s median household income is $70,000; among the 10,529 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($53K–$88K), it’s healthier than 14%, so it sits below most towns with similar incomes, too.
