Health Grade

What’s behind Tiltonsville’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Tiltonsville is healthier than 19% of U.S. towns. Fair or poor health holds the grade up (fewer adults who rate their health fair or poor than 38% of U.S. towns); obesity pulls it down (better than 11%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $43K–$72K (8,098)Healthier than 33%

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). Tiltonsville’s median household income is $57,250; among the 8,098 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($43K–$72K), it’s healthier than 33%, 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, Tiltonsville could be anywhere from D− to B. The letter shows with “≈”.
