Health Grade

What’s behind Yorkville’s grade

On seven CDC estimates for adults, Yorkville is healthier than 66% of U.S. towns, #173 of 357 in Wisconsin. Mental distress holds the grade up (fewer adults with frequent mental distress than 89% of U.S. towns); obesity pulls it down (better than 22%).

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). Yorkville’s median household income is $122,936; among the 5,314 U.S. towns within 25% of that ($92K–$154K), it’s healthier than 27%, 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, Yorkville could be anywhere from C+ to A. The letter shows with “≈”.
