What’s behind Centreville’s grade
On seven CDC estimates for adults, Centreville is healthier than 94% of U.S. towns, #67 of 253 in Virginia. All seven estimates beat the typical U.S. town. The strongest is obesity (fewer adults with obesity than 97% of towns); the weakest is diabetes, still better than 79%.
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). Centreville’s median household income is $139,510; among the 3,615 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($105K–$174K), it’s healthier than 81%, about where its income would put it.
Most Virginia towns score higher on these estimates than towns elsewhere, so within the state Centreville is healthier than 74% of graded towns, against 94% nationally.
