Key State Highlights.

Arizona generally ranks in the middle on health outcomes; however, many residents face challenges with housing, food security, environment, income, employment, and health care access.

American Indian/Alaska Native adults within the state face some of the poorest outcomes across measures. They are least likely to live in opportunity-rich areas that have food security. They are also the least likely to have quality housing, and youth in school or working.
American Indian/Alaska Native adults also have the highest premature mortality rate in the state and the lowest percent in excellent or very good health. In fact, American Indian/Alaska Native adults have a rate of premature mortality that is almost 2.5 times higher than the state rate for adults.
The Hispanic population in Arizona are least likely to have post-secondary education, access to affordable health care, and health insurance coverage.
While rates of low birth weight infants in Arizona are generally lower than most other states, Black infants are most likely to be born at a low birth weight and least likely to make it to their first birthday. Black adults in the state are also least likely to have access to affordable housing or own a home.
