Poor Physical Health: 14+ Days

County: Morris
Measurement Period: 2022
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.

Technical note: Sub-county small area estimates use state and county data from the CDC's Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) in tandem with demographic data for census tracts and cities. It is not appropriate to use this data for evaluation purposes.
Estimates for New Jersey locales are not available for 2019. The state did not collect enough BRFSS data to meet the minimum requirements for inclusion in the 2019 annual aggregate data set.
