What’s behind Liverpool Township’s civic life grade
On community nonprofits and volunteering, Liverpool Township is ahead of 31% of U.S. towns, #716 of 914 in Ohio. Liverpool Township is graded on two of the three inputs. Liverpool Township’s count of community nonprofits holds the grade up; the share of younger adults in volunteering groups pulls it down.
Most U.S. towns with similar household incomes ($50K–$84K) 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.
