My County is Healthier Than Your County!

Or is it?

This week, The Oregonian posted an interesting story comparing the health of most of our counties (33 out of 36).

Here’s an interactive map.

It’s interesting to see that the most populated counties are all necessarily grouped together.

For more county info…see here.

Why is this so important to us?

Because OHSU’s goal is to improve the health of all residents in all counties. For more info on our statewide efforts, visit this link.
