Health Grade

What’s behind Carbonville’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Carbonville is healthier than 48% of U.S. towns. Smoking holds the grade up (fewer adults who smoke than 74% of U.S. towns); physical distress pulls it down (better than 18%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $50K–$84K (10,235)Healthier than 64%

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). Carbonville’s median household income is $67,193; among the 10,235 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($50K–$84K), it’s healthier than 64%, more 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, Carbonville could be anywhere from C− to B+.
