What’s behind The Village’s grade

The strongest is physical distress (fewer adults with frequent physical distress than 86% of towns); the weakest is no exercise, still better than 64%.

The Village’s median household income is $77,108; among the 10,815 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($58K–$96K), it’s healthier than 90%, about where its income would put it.
