The four measures behind Concord Township’s grade
All three inputs sit close together, so no single one decides Concord Township’s grade.
Unemployment (0.0%) is left out: Concord Township’s labor force is under 1,000, too few workers for a steady figure.
A fairly firm grade. Within the Census margins of error for income and poverty, Concord Township could be anywhere from D− to C.
