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