On seven CDC estimates for adults, Lantana is healthier than 98% of U.S. towns, #13 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 almost every town); the weakest is obesity, still better than 80%.

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). Lantana’s median household income is $199,489; among the 960 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($150K–$249K), it’s healthier than 68%, about where its income would put it.

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