Against towns with similar incomes, Osborn’s lead shrinks

Osborn is healthier than 53% of U.S. towns, but 38% of the 9,604 towns with similar household incomes ($70K–$116K). Part of its edge is what towns with its incomes tend to have. Health Grade ↓

Written from the CDC, Medicare and HRSA data on this page. CDC PLACES 2025 release: modeled estimates for adults, not counts; “higher” and “lower” mean the Wisconsin figure falls outside Osborn’s likely range; Osborn’s figures come from ZIP code 54165, which may reach past town lines; at the ends of CDC’s ranges the grade could be anywhere from C− to A−.

Health Grade

What’s behind Osborn’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Osborn is healthier than 53% of U.S. towns. Diabetes holds the grade up (fewer adults with diabetes than 63% of U.S. towns); obesity pulls it down (better than 34%).

U.S. towns with similar incomes, $70K–$116K (9,604)Healthier than 38%

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). Osborn’s median household income is $92,727; among the 9,604 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($70K–$116K), it’s healthier than 38%, 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, Osborn could be anywhere from C− to A−. The letter shows with “≈”. Shared figures. CDC doesn’t publish an estimate for Osborn itself, so these are ZIP code 54165’s, which Osborn shares with Seymour. The two towns get the same figures and the same grade, and the ZIP’s 6,191 adults include people outside Osborn.
