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 St. Pierre door to door.

Close calls stay gray

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

CDC’s own town estimate

CDC publishes St. Pierre directly, so these are its own figures.

Neighbors talk health

Doctors taking patients, urgent care, staying active in St. Pierre.
