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). Saukville’s median household income is $79,730; among the 10,764 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($60K–$100K), it’s healthier than 78%, 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, Saukville could be anywhere from C to A. The letter shows with “≈”.
