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). Lake Land'Or’s median household income is $94,348; among the 9,387 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($71K–$118K), it’s healthier than 44%, so it sits below most towns with similar incomes, too.

A rough placement. CDC’s likely ranges are wide here: with every estimate at one end or the other, Lake Land'Or could be anywhere from C to A. The letter shows with “≈”.
