Health Grade

What’s behind Cibolo’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Cibolo is healthier than 76% of U.S. towns, #126 of 641 in Texas. All seven estimates beat the typical U.S. town. The strongest is physical distress (fewer adults with frequent physical distress than 87% of towns); the weakest is mental distress, still better than 61%.

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). Cibolo’s median household income is $122,365; among the 5,399 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($92K–$153K), it’s healthier than 43%, less than its income alone would suggest.

A fairly firm grade. With every estimate at the unfavorable or the favorable end of CDC’s likely range, Cibolo could be anywhere from B− to A.
