The health of NYC has never been better. Our city’s life expectancy is 81.2 years, 2.5 years higher than the national average. However, not all residents have the same opportunities to lead a healthy life. A ZIP code should not determine a person’s health, but that’s the reality in so many cities, including our own. The Community Health Profiles allow us to see how much health can vary by neighborhood. Policies and practices based on a history of racism and discrimination (often referred to as structural racism) have created neighborhoods with high rates of poverty and limited access to resources that promote health. The practice of removing funding or refusing to provide funding to communities of color has caused poor health outcomes to cluster in these communities. The Community Health Profiles also show how important community resources, and funding to create and sustain these resources, are to health outcomes. For example, supermarkets provide more access to fresh foods than bodegas. However, in some neighborhoods with obesity rates higher than the citywide average, just 5% of food establishments are supermarkets, making it difficult for residents to make healthy choices. Addressing these inequities may seem like a daunting task, but by working together, we can dismantle the unjust policies and practices that contribute to poor health in our communities. Through Take Care New York 2020 (TCNY 2020), and other New York City Health Department programs, we work with community partners to give every resident the same opportunity for good health. We are making progress, but there is more work to do. Reducing health inequities requires policymakers, community groups, health professionals, researchers and residents to work together for change at every level. We look forward to working with you to improve the health of our city. Sincerely, Oxiris Barbot, MD Take Care New York 2020 (TCNY 2020) is the City’s blueprint for giving everyone the chance to live a healthier life.

This is one of 59 community districts in NYC. The community district with the most favorable outcome in NYC for each measure is presented throughout the report. Sometimes this is the highest rate (e.g., physical activity) and sometimes this is the lowest rate (e.g., infant mortality). Some figures include an arrow to help readers understand the direction of the healthier outcome. This profile uses the following color coding system: LOWEST/HIGHEST BEDFORD BROOKLYN NEW YORK CITY COMMUNITY STUYVESANT DISTRICT 4 COMMUNITY HEALTH PROFILES 2018: BEDFORD STUYVESANT Understanding Health Inequities in New York City The ability to live a long and healthy life is not equally available to all New Yorkers. A baby born to a family that lives in the Upper East Side will live 11 years longer than a baby born to a family in Brownsville. This inequity is unacceptable. Resources and opportunities are at the root of good health. These include secure jobs with benefits, well-maintained and affordable housing, safe neighborhoods with clean parks, accessible transportation, healthy and affordable food, and quality education and health care.1 In NYC, access to these resources and opportunities are not equitably distributed. Neighborhoods with residents of color often have fewer resources. Since the 1600s—when NYC was established by colonization—racist policies and practices have shaped where New Yorkers live and go to school, what jobs they have and what their neighborhoods look like.

  • Analyzing the Income Gap Between Park Slope and Bedford- Stuyvesant
    The Effect of Education on Health: Analyzing the Income Gap between Park Slope and Bedford- Stuyvesant Sheba Antony, Marybeth Babu and Evan Biegel Spring 2016 Introduction Park Slope and Bedford-Stuyvesant are two seemingly neighboring towns in Brooklyn that currently differ in a multitude of ways: 1. Income Park Slope Bed-Stuy 2. Population 3. Health 4. Education What is responsible for these differences? New York City Teacher Strike of 1968 Ocean Hill-Brownsville school district, 1968: - 95% of students were black or Latino - 67% of teachers were white September, 1968 November, 1968 May, 1968 - previously dismissed teachers are - NYS Board of - white teachers reinstated with Regents declares deemed ineffective “partner” teachers district under state to teach students - chaos in classrooms control - white teachers are - Union president Al - strike terminates, dismissed Shanker advocates a leaving the city in an strike even more racially separated position Hypothesis 1. The 1968 Teacher Strike engendered more separation between races in NYC, in turn altering the education system. 2. Accompanying a change in the education system was a change in educational attainment and therefore income. 3. As the income gap between Park Slope and Bedford-Stuyvesant broadened, the quality of health in each area began to diverge. In sum, the education and health of an area are two major factors that influence the future state of the area. Education School Enrollment - Overall, Bed-Stuy has more enrollment than Park Slope until the 2000s. - In the past few years, enrollment in Park Slope has increased while enrollment in Bed- Stuy has decreased. - Conclusion: There has been an overall decline in enrollment; however, Park Slope seems to be slowly recovering.
