About Health in Ashtabula County, Ohio
Ashtabula lags national health standards
At 73.7 years, Ashtabula County residents live 2.4 years shorter than the U.S. average of 76.1 years. The county's 21.5% poor or fair health rate reflects ongoing chronic disease and health management challenges.
Bottom tier within Ohio
Ashtabula's 73.7-year life expectancy falls 1.1 years below Ohio's 74.8-year average, placing it among the state's lower-performing counties. With a 21.5% poor/fair health rate, Ashtabula faces significant population health headwinds.
Weakest outcomes in northeastern Ohio
Ashtabula's 73.7-year life expectancy trails Trumbull and Geauga counties to the south and east. At just 29 primary care providers per 100K, Ashtabula ranks among the lowest in the region, creating access barriers.
Provider shortage compounds access gaps
With 9.4% of residents uninsured—above Ohio's 7.5% average—and only 29 primary care providers per 100K, Ashtabula faces twin barriers to care. Mental health provider availability at 239 per 100K provides some support, but overall capacity remains strained.
