Message from the Bronx !

By: Darriel Ortiz

#Not62 again! Yes you heard correctly, the Bronx was ranked dead last in all 62 New York State counties. According to the 2019 County Health Ranking & Roadmap Report released by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the University of Wisconsin, Bronx County ranked 62 in factors related to Clinical Care, Physical Environment and Social and Economic. However, issues related to health behaviors continues to drop. Currently placed at 39th!

We are looking for Bronx residents to share their thoughts and opinions on issues affecting our Borough.

This week we are asking residents how they feel about the general health factors of Bronx County.
