About these numbers

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 Ivins door to door.

Close calls stay grayEvery figure has a margin of error. When the Utah figure falls inside it, we don't call Ivins better or worse.

CDC's own town estimateCDC publishes Ivins directly, so these are its own figures.

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

Health estimates: CDC PLACES. Hospitals and star ratings: Medicare Care Compare (CMS). Health centers and shortage areas: HRSA. Town boundaries: U.S. Census Bureau.
