What’s behind Perrysburg’s civic life grade
On community nonprofits and volunteering, Perrysburg is ahead of 25% of U.S. towns. Perrysburg is graded on two of the three inputs. The share of younger adults in volunteering groups holds the grade up; Perrysburg’s count of community nonprofits pulls it down.
Most U.S. towns with similar household incomes ($47K–$78K) score higher, so income alone doesn’t account for it.
Civic life counts registered nonprofits, library visits and online volunteering groups, so it can miss civic life that runs through congregations, mutual aid or neighbors looking out for each other.
