Data Story
About Health in Kinney County, Texas
Kinney balances longevity with need
Kinney County residents live to 76.7 years, more than two years longer than the U.S. average of 74.5 years. However, 25.4% report poor or fair health—above the national average of 17.8%—indicating extended lifespans don't guarantee good health quality.
Above Texas in longevity, coverage
Kinney's 76.7-year life expectancy exceeds Texas's 74.3-year average by more than two years, ranking it firmly in the state's upper tier. Its 12.9% uninsured rate significantly beats the state average of 19.8%, showing strong community coverage.
Coverage standout, modest outcomes
Kinney's 12.9% uninsured rate ranks among the region's lowest, competing with Kent County (11.3%) and far outpacing Kenedy (37.7%). However, its 76.7-year life expectancy trails Kendall (79.8) and Kimble (78.6), suggesting coverage alone doesn't guarantee longevity.
Strong coverage, provider data sparse
Kinney County achieves an impressive 12.9% uninsured rate, well below state and national averages, ensuring most residents can access care. However, provider data isn't available, and 25.4% reporting poor/fair health suggests access or capacity constraints despite good coverage.
