Service Description: The spatial analysis showed clear inequalities in healthcare access across New York City. Lower‑income neighborhoods, particularly in South Brooklyn and the South Bronx, tend to have fewer hospitals nearby, even in areas with high population density. In contrast, wealthier areas such as eastern Manhattan have a much higher concentration of hospitals despite serving smaller or less dense populations.
While Brooklyn had the largest population and the Bronx was the most densely populated, Manhattan had significantly more hospitals than either borough. This pattern suggests that hospital distribution is not aligned with population size or density and instead reflects broader income‑based disparities in access to healthcare facilities.
