CityHealth, in partnership with the Center for Public Health Law Research at Temple University’s Beasley School of Law and other evaluation partners, rated America’s 75 largest cities on their combined quality and quantity of 12 policies in place in areas that can improve people’s access to healthy choices and address critical health disparities in local communities. 

Complete results can be found at cityhealth.org.  

The policies are: 

• Affordable Housing Trusts

All the data are displayed on CityHealth.org using the Center’s MonQcle software ranking technology and may be downloaded on each policy page. Learn more about the project’s methodology.
