About these numbers

How CDC estimates town health

They're modeled estimatesCDC combines a large national health survey with each area's age, sex, race and income mix to estimate local rates. Nobody surveyed Redding door to door.
Close calls stay grayEvery figure has a margin of error. When the Michigan figure falls inside it, we don't call Redding better or worse.
Why a ZIP codeCDC publishes towns like Redding by ZIP code. We weight the ZIP codes that cover Redding by how much of its land each one covers.

CDC PLACES: Local Data for Better Health, 2025 release. The Michigan figure combines its counties, weighted by adult population.

Health estimates: CDC PLACES. Hospitals and star ratings: Medicare Care Compare (CMS). Health centers and shortage areas: HRSA. Town boundaries: U.S. Census Bureau.
