Health Grade

What’s behind Cicero’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Cicero is healthier than 60% of U.S. towns. Fair or poor health holds the grade up (fewer adults who rate their health fair or poor than 70% of U.S. towns); obesity pulls it down (better than 37%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $62K–$103K (10,582)Healthier than 61%

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). Cicero’s median household income is $82,350; among the 10,582 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($62K–$103K), it’s healthier than 61%, about where its income would put it.

A rough placement. CDC’s likely ranges are wide here: with every estimate at one end or the other, Cicero could be anywhere from C to A−. The letter shows with “≈”. These are ZIP code figures (ZIP 54106,54165,54107,54170), weighted by land area, which can reach past town lines.
