Data Story
About Health in Wyoming County, Pennsylvania
Wyoming faces health headwinds
Life expectancy here stands at 75.4 years, trailing the U.S. average of 76.1 years. Nearly one in five residents (18.5%) report poor or fair health, significantly above the national average of 16%, signaling real health challenges.
Among Pennsylvania's lower-ranked counties
Wyoming's 75.4-year life expectancy falls notably short of Pennsylvania's 76.4-year state average. The 18.5% poor/fair health rate ranks among the state's worst, placing the county in the lower tier of Pennsylvania health rankings.
Lagging behind nearby counties
Wyoming's life expectancy of 75.4 years is the lowest among its regional peers—a full year behind Westmoreland (76.6 years) and 2.1 years behind York County (77.5 years). The county's 18.5% poor/fair health rate also exceeds both neighbors, highlighting a widening health gap.
Provider shortage compounds access issues
Wyoming has just 58 primary care providers per 100,000 residents—far below Westmoreland's 72—and only 77 mental health providers per 100,000, the lowest in the region. Combined with a 5.2% uninsured rate above the state average, many residents face barriers to finding and affording care.
Finding coverage is critical here
With limited local providers and ongoing uninsured gaps, accessing affordable health insurance is more important than ever. Check healthcare.gov today or call 1-800-318-2596 to explore Medicaid, subsidized plans, and local health resources.
