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). Tracyton’s median household income is $103,935; among the 7,991 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($78K–$130K), it’s healthier than 66%, about where its income would put it.

Most Washington towns score higher on these estimates than towns elsewhere, so within the state Tracyton is healthier than 55% of graded towns, against 77% nationally.

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