Close calls stay grayEvery figure has a margin of error. When the North Dakota figure falls inside it, we don't call Hunter better or worse.
Why a ZIP codeCDC publishes towns like Hunter by ZIP code. We weight the ZIP codes that cover Hunter by how much of its land each one covers.

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