Health Grade

What’s behind Umapine’s grade

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $42K–$70K (7,708)Healthier than 93%

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). Umapine’s median household income is $55,927; among the 7,708 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($42K–$70K), it’s healthier than 93%, more than its income alone would suggest.

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