This indicator shows the percentage of adults who stated that their physical health was not good 14 or more days in the past month.
Why is this important?
People's assessment of their physical health, which includes physical illness and injury, is a good measure of recent health. When people feel healthy they are more likely to feel happy and to participate in their community socially and economically. Areas with unhealthy populations lose productivity due to lost work time. Healthy residents are essential for creating a vibrant and successful community.
