The 2024 County Health Rankings (CHR) report has recognized Montgomery County, Frederick County, and Howard County as some of the healthiest counties in the United States. This report focuses on the concept of civic health and how civic participation can impact overall well-being.
The CHR is a collaboration between the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Each year, the CHR compares counties within each state across more than 30 factors that influence health outcomes. These factors include social determinants like education, employment, housing, physical activity, and daily commute times. Based on these criteria, Montgomery, Frederick, and Howard counties have been recognized as leaders in health outcomes not just in Maryland, but across the entire country.
The report emphasizes the importance of civic infrastructure and spaces that allow for connection and information sharing, such as access to local news, broadband internet
