Health Grade

What’s behind Nasewaupee’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Nasewaupee is healthier than 58% of U.S. towns. Mental distress holds the grade up (fewer adults with frequent mental distress than 90% of U.S. towns); no exercise pulls it down (better than 37%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $64K–$107K (10,321)Healthier than 55%

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). Nasewaupee’s median household income is $85,875; among the 10,321 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($64K–$107K), it’s healthier than 55%, 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, Nasewaupee could be anywhere from C to A−. The letter shows with “≈”. Shared figures. CDC doesn’t publish an estimate for Nasewaupee itself, so these are ZIP code 54235’s, which Nasewaupee shares with Sevastopol. The two towns get the same figures and the same grade, and the ZIP’s 14,790 adults include people outside Nasewaupee.
