fiscal_health: 863

Per-municipality DEBT-LOAD index (0-100 percentile composite of debt-to-revenue, per-capita debt, deficit, and outside-aid reliance) with a low/moderate/high/very-high band. This is a debt-load indicator, NOT a solvency verdict — it over-flags relative to official cash-solvency scores (validated against NY OSC's Fiscal Stress Monitoring: this index rates some towns "high" that the state rates "No Designation"). Cross-check against the fiscal_stress_official table where a state publishes an official score.
