Data Story
About Health in Webster County, Georgia
Webster's longevity paradox
Webster County boasts the highest life expectancy in the comparison group at 76.0 years, meeting the U.S. average of 76.1 years. Yet one in four residents (25.5%) report poor or fair health—the highest rate statewide—suggesting hidden vulnerabilities beneath aggregate longevity gains.
Webster leads Georgia on longevity
At 76.0 years, Webster County's life expectancy exceeds Georgia's state average of 73.3 years by 2.7 years, ranking among the state's healthiest. This achievement masks a paradox: the highest poor/fair health rate in the dataset warns of underlying health inequality.
Webster's contradictory health profile
Webster's 76.0-year life expectancy outpaces all nearby counties, including Walton (74.7) and Walker (73.3), yet its 25.5% poor/fair health rate exceeds peers. With 42 primary care providers per 100K and limited mental health data, Webster's health infrastructure remains incomplete.
Insurance gaps in Webster County
Webster County's uninsured rate of 20.4% is the highest in the comparison group, affecting one in five residents and likely driving the elevated poor/fair health reports. Provider capacity (42 primary care per 100K) appears insufficient, and mental health provider data is unavailable, leaving care gaps unresolved.
Close Webster's coverage gap
