What’s behind St. Clair Township’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, St. Clair Township is healthier than 30% of U.S. towns, #577 of 993 in Ohio. Physical distress holds the grade up (fewer adults with frequent physical distress than 49% of U.S. towns); obesity pulls it down (better than 18%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $47K–$78K (9,495)Healthier than 44%

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). St. Clair Township’s median household income is $62,378; among the 9,495 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($47K–$78K), it’s healthier than 44%, 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, St. Clair Township could be anywhere from D to B. The letter shows with “≈”. These are ZIP code figures (ZIP 45011,45013,45067), weighted by land area, which can reach past town lines.
