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). Concord Township’s median household income is $75,000; among the 10,862 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($56K–$94K), it’s healthier than 8%, so it sits below most towns with similar incomes, too.

A fairly firm grade. With every estimate at the unfavorable or the favorable end of CDC’s likely range, Concord Township could be anywhere from D− to C+. These are ZIP code figures (ZIP 45628,43160,43115), weighted by land area, which can reach past town lines.
