Key State Highlights.
New Yorkers generally enjoy better health outcomes and health care access than most people across the nation, including access to primary and psychiatric care and health insurance coverage, despite facing greater environmental challenges.
  • Hispanic, Black, and American Indian/Alaska Native residents in New York suffer from a number of inequities in the state, including having lower rates of livable income, health insurance coverage, and post-secondary education than the state rate for all groups.
  • The majority of households in New York struggle with owning and finding quality and affordable housing, with only a small fraction of Hispanic (27%) and Black (33%) households owning a home as compared with a state homeownership rate of 55%.
  • While New York ranks among top states with best health outcomes overall, American Indian/Alaska Native and Hispanic adults are among the least likely to be in excellent or very good health compared to all other groups.
  • Asian/Pacific Islander New Yorkers are least likely to live in opportunity-rich areas, such as those with low rates of physical assault and robbery.
