Health Grade

What’s behind Donald’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Donald is healthier than 35% of U.S. towns. No exercise holds the grade up (fewer adults who get no exercise than 73% of U.S. towns); obesity pulls it down (better than 4%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $61K–$101K (10,705)Healthier than 27%

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). Donald’s median household income is $80,729; among the 10,705 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($61K–$101K), it’s healthier than 27%, 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, Donald could be anywhere from D to B+. The letter shows with “≈”.
