Across America, babies born just a few miles apart have dramatic differences in life expectancy. Developed by the RWJF Commission to Build a Healthier America, this city map displays life expectancy values alongside common geographic landmarks and highway exits, to show how opportunities to lead a long and healthy life can vary dramatically by neighborhood, and in communities across the United States.
