Half the uninsured here sit in the subsidy range

One in seven has no coverage

15.0% of Carroll County's 107,670 under-65 residents have no health coverage — 16,154 people. That is close to the Georgia rate of 14.0%, and puts Carroll County in the top quarter of the 3,143 counties measured nationally (484th).

The people below the subsidy floor

4,902 of Carroll County's uninsured — 30%, close to the 31% typical nationally — earn under $22,025 a year. In Georgia that income is the coverage gap, and no marketplace plan reaches it.

Older residents here are better covered

2,758 people aged 50 to 64 in Carroll County have no coverage, a rate of 12.1% — lower than the 15.0% across all under-65 residents here, which is the usual pattern — people in their fifties and early sixties tend to be more settled in employer coverage. Age-rated premiums make this the most expensive group to cover before Medicare.
