Community health profiles, 2006

Filed under: Beat reporting, Health reporting - journalismlibrary @

New York City’s Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (surely the most excellent name for a health department in all of the U.S.) has just released its 2006 Community Health Profiles. These profiles cover neighborhoods in all 5 boroughs, and also include special reports and maps on topics such as binge drinking, diabetes, and domestic violence. You can search the profiles by zip code, or browse by borough or district. [Thanks to J-schooler Tania Haas for pointing out the update.]
