Justice trails towns with similar incomes

Justice is healthier than 27% of U.S. towns, and only 8% of the 8,892 towns with similar household incomes ($73K–$122K), so income alone doesn’t explain its grade. Health Grade ↓

More high blood pressure in Justice, and more people treating it

43.8% of adults have high blood pressure (Oklahoma 38.5%), but 80.6% of them take medicine for it, vs 76.3% statewide. Checkups ↓

Fewer Justice adults struggle to make ends meet

Worries about food, housing, utility bills and getting around all run below Oklahoma. 1 in 7 adults worry about having enough food, vs 1 in 5 adults statewide. Everyday needs ↓

Written from the CDC, Medicare and HRSA data on this page. CDC PLACES 2025 release: modeled estimates for adults, not counts; “higher” and “lower” mean the Oklahoma figure falls outside Justice’s likely range; at the ends of CDC’s ranges the grade could be anywhere from D to B.

Health Grade

What’s behind Justice’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Justice is healthier than 27% of U.S. towns. Mental distress holds the grade up (fewer adults with frequent mental distress than 63% of U.S. towns); diabetes pulls it down (better than 16%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $73K–$122K (8,892)Healthier than 8%

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). Justice’s median household income is $97,861; among the 8,892 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($73K–$122K), it’s healthier than 8%, less than its income alone would suggest.

Where Justice compares well: no health insurance (ages 18–64), 8% (U.S. 11%); taking blood pressure medicine (adults with high blood pressure), 80.6% (U.S. 76.5%).

A rough placement. CDC’s likely ranges are wide here: with every estimate at one end or the other, Justice could be anywhere from D to B. The letter shows with “≈”.
