Health Grade

What’s behind Clarno’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Clarno is healthier than 56% of U.S. towns. Mental distress holds the grade up (fewer adults with frequent mental distress than 80% of U.S. towns); obesity pulls it down (better than 19%).

Less healthyHealthier
U.S. towns with similar incomes, $63K–$105K (10,442)Healthier than 52%

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). Clarno’s median household income is $84,375; among the 10,442 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($63K–$105K), it’s healthier than 52%, 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, Clarno could be anywhere from C to A−. The letter shows with “≈”. Shared figures. CDC doesn’t publish an estimate for Clarno itself, so these are ZIP code 53566’s, which Clarno shares with Monroe. The two towns get the same figures and the same grade, and the ZIP’s 11,793 adults include people outside Clarno.
