What the data shows in Virginia

Across Virginia's 133 counties, 8 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 disease burden, the leading driver of community health need in Virginia.

The most widespread specific risk pattern is Respiratory Burden, triggered in 43 counties, followed by Industrial Burden in 24 counties.

Bath County carries the highest overall need in the state, with an opportunity score of 64 out of 100 (elevated). Higher scores mean more burden relative to the rest of the country.
