City Health Dashboard

NYU's Langone Health created a dashboard that shows 36 measures of health, the factors that shape health, and driver of health equity to guide local solutions for 500 cities. This item links to the dashboard specific to Rochester, NY. The City Health Dashboard pulls together local data from multiple national sources to equip cities with a one-stop resource to view and compare city- and neighborhood-specific data to guide local solutions that create healthier and more equitable communities. With this one-stop online resource, users can: Pinpoint neighborhoods within their cities that are experiencing better or worse health outcomes and dig deeper into what is contributing to those differences Compare health outcomes and factors that influence health, such as chronic absenteeism and income inequality, within a city to find correlations and to see how particular metrics are related Compare their cities to others with similar characteristics, creating an opportunity to learn from peer cities how successfully to address specific challenges Explore resources, such as evidence-based policies and programs, to support effective action in their communities For more information about this tool, please go to https://www.cityhealthdashboard.com/about
