How CDC estimates town health

Modeled estimates

CDC combines a large national health survey with each area’s age, sex, race and income mix to estimate local rates. Nobody surveyed Evan door to door.

Close calls stay gray

Every figure has a likely range. When the Kansas figure falls inside it, we don’t call Evan better or worse.

Why a ZIP code

CDC publishes towns like Evan by ZIP code. We weight the ZIP codes that cover Evan by how much of its land each one covers.
