Introduction At DataHaven, we believe that good data can propel community action. We look for numbers that can inform policy and stay relevant to the general public. More public data are available now than ever before, and in this report, our goal is to distill those figures and put them in context to provide a first-order approximation of how Fairfield County is doing. We've included a broad range of information, with input from our gracious partners in local hospitals, foundations, and city agencies. Their assistance throughout the process has helped What does it mean to have a us hone in on the multi-dimensional well-being of healthy economy?
