Data Story
About Health in Cheyenne County, Colorado
Cheyenne faces longevity gap
At 73.8 years, Cheyenne County residents live nearly 5 years less than the U.S. average of 78.3 years. With 14.6% reporting poor or fair health, the county faces steeper health challenges than most of the nation.
Well below Colorado health standards
Cheyenne County's 73.8-year life expectancy trails Colorado's state average of 78.2 years by more than 4 years, marking one of the state's lowest outcomes. The health disparity signals pressing need for targeted interventions.
Isolation compounds health challenges
Cheyenne's 73.8-year life expectancy falls far short of Custer County (79.2 years) and even distant Clear Creek County (83.6 years). Rural location and limited health data make it harder to assess provider availability and plan care.
Coverage good, data shows gaps
Cheyenne's 9.0% uninsured rate is slightly better than Colorado's 9.7%, yet provider data remains unavailable, limiting visibility into care access. Rural counties often struggle to attract health providers despite good insurance coverage.
