Health Grade

What’s behind Rosendale’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Rosendale is healthier than 59% of U.S. towns. Diabetes holds the grade up (fewer adults with diabetes than 82% of U.S. towns); obesity pulls it down (better than 8%).

Less healthyHealthier
U.S. towns with similar incomes, $72K–$120K (9,176)Healthier than 43%

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). Rosendale’s median household income is $95,893; among the 9,176 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($72K–$120K), it’s healthier than 43%, less than its income alone would suggest.

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