Written from the CDC, Medicare and HRSA data on this page. CDC PLACES 2025 release: modeled estimates for adults, not counts; “higher” and “lower” mean the Virginia figure falls outside Berryville’s likely range; at the ends of CDC’s ranges the grade could be anywhere from C− to A−.
What’s behind Berryville’s grade
On seven CDC estimates for adults, Berryville is healthier than 56% of U.S. towns, #156 of 253 in Virginia. Mental distress holds the grade up (fewer adults with frequent mental distress than 68% of U.S. towns); diabetes pulls it down (better than 34%).
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). Berryville’s median household income is $102,788; among the 8,166 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($77K–$128K), it’s healthier than 32%, less than its income alone would suggest.
Most Virginia towns score higher on these estimates than towns elsewhere, so within the state Berryville is healthier than 38% of graded towns, against 56% nationally.
