What’s behind Wyndham’s grade
On seven CDC estimates for adults, Wyndham is among the healthiest U.S. towns, #4 of 253 in Virginia. All seven estimates beat the typical U.S. town. The strongest is fair or poor health (fewer adults who rate their health fair or poor than almost every town); the weakest is diabetes, still better than 92%.
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). Wyndham’s median household income is $235,250; among the 538 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($176K–$294K), it’s healthier than 80%, about where its income would put it.
