Data Sources: The data presented in these Brooklyn Neighborhood Health Profiles (BNHP) is public use data, made available from the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene as well as U.S. Census Bureau via the American Community Survey (ACS) estimates.
The Community Health Survey (CHS) is a telephone survey conducted annually by the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene since 2002. It is a cross-sectional survey providing self-reported data from an annual sample of approximately 8,500 randomly selected adults aged 18 years and older from New York City. For the purpose of these profiles, data for indicators related to vital statistics, health out- comes, health services, health behaviors, built environment, education and insurance were obtained from CHS.
The U.S. Census Bureau’s ACS is an ongoing survey that provides data every year related to age, sex, race, family and relationships, income, health insurance, education, veteran status, disabilities, commute and housing. Most of the socioeconomic and demographic data is obtained with zip codes as statistical areas from the ACS. Geographic area definitions: For the purpose of Phase 1 of BNHP, we have used United Hospital Fund definitions (UHF) to define the eleven neighborhoods throughout Brooklyn. The CHS uses stratified random sampling according to UHF neighborhood descriptions to collect data. We have also used the zip code statistical areas to retrieve data from ACS. These two different geographic areas are combined to present data in UHF neighborhood defini- tions with the aid of an equivalency table. Domains and Indicators: A total of thirty-eight indicators are included in BNHP and categorized within eight domains, each describ- ing the social environment of an individual (Table 1). To develop the Health Needs Index using the social indicators approach and for ranking the neighborhoods based on unmet needs, we shortlisted fourteen indicators across seven domains using a correlation matrix to eliminate skewing from highly correlated indicators (Table 2). Data for indicators obtained from CHS is age-adjusted.

We are grateful to the Young Leadership Council of The Brooklyn Hospital Center, for providing seed funding for development of the Brooklyn Neighborhood Health Profiles. The Profiles would not have been feasible without grant funding from the New York State Vital Access Program and the Everest Foundation. We are indebted to the Prevention Steering Committee for providing guidance and feedback throughout development of the Profiles. Above all, we are grateful to each person who will use the Profiles toward keeping Brooklyn healthy
