On seven CDC estimates for adults, Lomira is healthier than 41% of U.S. towns, #301 of 357 in Wisconsin. Diabetes holds the grade up (fewer adults with diabetes than 68% of U.S. towns); obesity pulls it down (better than 7%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $53K–$88K (10,541)Healthier than 49%

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). Lomira’s median household income is $70,365; among the 10,541 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($53K–$88K), it’s healthier than 49%, 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, Lomira could be anywhere from D to A−. The letter shows with “≈”.
