U.S. towns with similar incomes, $53K–$89K (10,590)Healthier than 28%

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). Cadott’s median household income is $71,111; among the 10,590 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($53K–$89K), it’s healthier than 28%, 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, Cadott could be anywhere from D to B+. The letter shows with “≈”.
