What stands out about health in Millersburg
What’s behind Millersburg’s grade
On seven CDC estimates for adults, Millersburg is healthier than 70% of U.S. towns, #46 of 142 in Oregon. No exercise holds the grade up (fewer adults who get no exercise than 91% of U.S. towns); obesity pulls it down (better than 36%).
