CDC combines a large national health survey with each area’s age, sex, race and income mix to estimate local rates. Nobody surveyed Chaudoin door to door.

Close calls stay gray

Every figure has a likely range. When the South Dakota figure falls inside it, we don’t call Chaudoin better or worse.

Why a ZIP code

CDC publishes towns like Chaudoin by ZIP code. We weight the ZIP codes that cover Chaudoin by how much of its land each one covers.
