2011 New Hampshire State and Regional Health Profiles

The 2011 Snapshot of New Hampshire's Public Health Regions, Counties, and the Cities of Manchester and Nashua (4.99MB) is a companion document to the 2011 New Hampshire State Health Profile.

These profiles highlight 30 indicators selected to best describe the health of the people in New Hampshire communities.

The 2011 New Hampshire State Health Profile Report highlights 38 indicators to describe the health of the people in New Hampshire. It is intended to be used to set state and regional priorities to improve public's health in New Hampshire.
