What’s behind Champion Township’s grade
On seven CDC estimates for adults, Champion Township is healthier than 12% of U.S. towns, #836 of 993 in Ohio. Fair or poor health holds the grade up (fewer adults who rate their health fair or poor than 23% of U.S. towns); smoking pulls it down (better than 10%).

Champion Township’s median household income is $69,626; among the 10,492 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($52K–$87K), it’s healthier than 7%, so it sits below most towns with similar incomes, too.
