Key State Highlights.

Ohio fares better than most states in health care access; however, the state ranks among the bottom half of states for health outcomes, with many residents facing broader socioeconomic and environmental challenges.

Black adults in Ohio face the greatest challenges in being able to own homes and earn a livable income. They are also least likely to live in opportunity-rich areas with low rates of homicide and robbery.
Black adults in the state also have the highest rate of premature mortality, and Black infants are the most likely in the state to be born at a low birth weight and least likely to live to their first birthday.
Hispanic individuals in Ohio are least likely to attain post-secondary education.
The percent of American Indian/Alaska Native residents aged 16 or older that is employed is lower than the state rate for all groups.
