A new tool can show you how healthy your city is

STAT Morning Rounds

Curious about how healthy your town really is? Check out the new City Health Dashboard, courtesy of NYU and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. It’s an interactive tool that lets you look at a slew of health-related statistics — from housing costs and high blood pressure to premature birth rates — in 500 cities across the country. It also breaks that data down into regions within in a town and lets you compare statistics from each city to data from other cities or the national average.
