Arizona

Across Arizona's 15 counties, 5 have two or more of the four health-risk areas (environmental, disease, provider access, and social conditions) above the national threshold at the same time. These are the places where several pressures land together rather than one at a time.

Statewide, the health-risk area scoring highest on average is environmental risk, the leading driver of community health need in Arizona.

The most widespread specific risk pattern is Field Burden, triggered in 12 counties, followed by Heat Vulnerability in 10 counties.

Gila County carries the highest overall need in the state, with an opportunity score of 71 out of 100 (high). Higher scores mean more burden relative to the rest of the country.
