On seven CDC estimates for adults, Felida is healthier than 93% of U.S. towns, #46 of 285 in Washington. All seven estimates beat the typical U.S. town. The strongest is no exercise (fewer adults who get no exercise than 98% of towns); the weakest is obesity, still better than 75%.

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $124K–$207K (1,880)Healthier than 56%

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). Felida’s median household income is $165,208; among the 1,880 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($124K–$207K), it’s healthier than 56%, about where its income would put it.

A fairly firm grade. With every estimate at the unfavorable or the favorable end of CDC’s likely range, Felida could be anywhere from A− to A+.
