Healthy Communities NC Dashboard

Author: Cape Fear Collective

Tool Type: Dashboard

Content Type: Existing Data Source

Data Delay: 2-3 years (some of the data sources are up to 2021 and some are released up to 2020)

The interactive Healthy Communities NC Data Dashboard brings together and visualizes indicator data related to the Healthy NC 2030 goals. Data are displayed at the county and census-tract level, as well as by region (mountains, sandhills, Triangle, Charlotte-metro, etc.) and show relative rankings to compare one county to others across the state.

Users can download data and visualizations (maps, graphs) directly from the dashboard, and they can also download a PDF report of the dashboard for that locality. Indicators are grouped into five major domains, with multiple sub-domains in each:

Social & economic factors
Physical environment
Health behaviors
Clinical care
Health outcomes

Users should note that data is 2-3 years old, and will lag slightly behind when the original source data are updated. In addition to providing a single place to view a variety of county indicators, the dashboard also allows for reporting and presenting information.
