Bronx Times | Y Balloo
In 2024, the Bronx ranked 62nd out of 62 counties in New York State for health. Only 43% of Bronx residents in mental distress find resources—far lower than Manhattan (69%), Staten Island (71%), Brooklyn (61%), and Queens (54%). While Manhattan has 150 psychiatrists per 100,000 residents, the Bronx has just 18.7. And in 2023, the Bronx had the highest rate of psychiatric hospitalizations across NYC.
