What stands out about health in Raymond

Against towns with similar incomes, Raymond’s lead shrinks

Raymond is healthier than 61% of U.S. towns, but 32% of the 7,219 towns with similar household incomes ($82K–$137K). Part of its edge is what towns with its incomes tend to have. Health Grade ↓

Fewer Raymond adults struggle to make ends meet

Worries about food, housing, utility bills and getting around all run below Wisconsin. 1 in 11 adults worry about having enough food, vs 1 in 8 adults statewide. Everyday needs ↓

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 Raymond’s likely range; at the ends of CDC’s ranges the grade could be anywhere from C to A−.

Health Grade

What’s behind Raymond’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Raymond is healthier than 61% of U.S. towns, #203 of 357 in Wisconsin. Mental distress holds the grade up (fewer adults with frequent mental distress than 87% of U.S. towns); obesity pulls it down (better than 21%).

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). Raymond’s median household income is $109,464; among the 7,219 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($82K–$137K), it’s healthier than 32%, less than its income alone would suggest.

Most Wisconsin towns score higher on these estimates than towns elsewhere, so within the state Raymond is healthier than 43% of graded towns, against 61% nationally.

A rough placement. CDC’s likely ranges are wide here: with every estimate at one end or the other, Raymond could be anywhere from C to A−. The letter shows with “≈”.
