The 2024 Mental Health Index, created by Conduent Healthy Communities Institute, is a measure of socioeconomic and health factors correlated with self-reported poor mental health. The index is part of Conduent's SocioNeeds Index® Suite, which provides analytics around social determinants of health to advance equitable outcomes for a range of topics.
All zip codes, counties, and county equivalents in the United States are given an index value from 0 (low need) to 100 (high need). To help you find the areas of highest need in your community, the selected locations are ranked from 1 (low need) to 5 (high need) based on their index value relative to similar locations within the region.

The Mental Health Index is calculated by Conduent Healthy Communities Institute using data from Claritas Pop-Facts®, 2024; Claritas Consumer Profiles, 2023; American Community Survey, 2018-2022; and CDC PLACES Project, 2021 (2020 for Florida locales).
