Methodology

About this data

How the figures on this page are built. Each number links to its source below.

  • Listings come from CMS Care Compare (Home Health Care Agencies).1 A listing appears under the city on its license or certification address.
  • Adults 65+ is the Census Bureau’s 2020–2024 American Community Survey 5-year estimate for Wheeler (Census place). Census boundaries can differ from the mailing-address city used for listings, so per-1,000 figures are a guide, not a precise rate.14
  • Distances are straight-line miles from the center of Wheeler (U.S. Census Bureau place center). “Nearby” means within 25 miles and can include other states.
  • Agency contacts come from each program’s own directory and are checked when we rebuild the data. WeFoundCare does not rate or rank communities.
