Data Story
About Health in Stonewall County, Texas
Health data gaps in rural Texas
Stonewall County's life expectancy data is limited, but we know that 22.5% of residents report poor or fair health—higher than the national average of roughly 18%. The county's mental health provider density of 164 per 100,000 residents suggests some access to mental care, though primary care capacity remains a question mark for this rural community.
Below-average health despite data limits
While we can't directly compare Stonewall's life expectancy to Texas's 74.3-year state average due to incomplete reporting, the 22.5% poor/fair health rate ranks poorly within Texas. The county's uninsured rate of 16.4% is better than the state average of 19.8%, suggesting some residents have found coverage.
Holding steady among rural peers
Stonewall's 22.5% poor/fair health rate is better than neighboring Swisher County (27.0%) and Terry County (30.4%), but trails the healthier rural counties like Terrell (17.3%). Its mental health provider ratio of 164 per 100K outpaces most neighboring rural counties, offering a bright spot for behavioral health.
Rural care desert with uninsured gaps
Stonewall has 82 primary care providers per 100,000 residents, but with just 16.4% uninsured, access challenges may reflect geography more than affordability. Limited data on provider capacity suggests residents may travel significant distances for routine care.
