the number of women 15-44 years of age.

About the Community Health Dashboard Project

The goal of the project is to provide Bronx-specific data on risk factors and health outcomes with an

emphasis on presenting data on trends, socio-demographic differences (e.g., by age, sex,

race/ethnicity, etc.) and sub-county/neighborhood level data

Data will be periodically updated as new data becomes available.

Produced by Montefiore’s Office of Community & Population Health using publicly-available data

sources
