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 White Eagle door to door.

Close calls stay gray

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

CDC’s own town estimate

CDC publishes White Eagle directly, so these are its own figures.
