On seven CDC estimates for adults, Clinton Township is healthier than 18% of U.S. towns, #735 of 993 in Ohio. Fair or poor health holds the grade up (fewer adults who rate their health fair or poor than 35% of U.S. towns); smoking pulls it down (better than 19%).

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). Clinton Township’s median household income is $61,378; among the 9,276 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($46K–$77K), it’s healthier than 25%, so it sits below most towns with similar incomes, too.

A rough placement. CDC’s likely ranges are wide here: with every estimate at one end or the other, Clinton Township could be anywhere from D− to B−. The letter shows with “≈”. These are ZIP code figures (ZIP 45365), weighted by land area, which can reach past town lines.
