On seven CDC estimates for adults, Hopewell is healthier than 70% of U.S. towns, #370 of 755 in New York. All seven estimates beat the typical U.S. town. The strongest is obesity (fewer adults with obesity than 78% of towns); the weakest is physical distress, still better than 54%.

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $63K–$105K (10,449)Healthier than 74%

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). Hopewell’s median household income is $84,358; among the 10,449 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($63K–$105K), it’s healthier than 74%, about where its income would put it.

Most New York towns score higher on these estimates than towns elsewhere, so within the state Hopewell is healthier than 51% of graded towns, against 70% nationally.

A rough placement. CDC’s likely ranges are wide here: with every estimate at one end or the other, Hopewell could be anywhere from C+ to A. The letter shows with “≈”. These are ZIP code figures (ZIP 14424,14432,14561,14548), weighted by land area, which can reach past town lines.
