Health Grade

What’s behind Netarts’ grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Netarts is healthier than 57% of U.S. towns. Mental distress holds the grade up (fewer adults with frequent mental distress than 80% of U.S. towns); diabetes pulls it down (better than 16%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $60K–$100K (10,755)Healthier than 60%

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). Netarts’ median household income is $79,866; among the 10,755 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($60K–$100K), it’s healthier than 60%, about where its income would put it.

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

Why age matters here
