AHAH
(the index of ‘Access to Health Assets and Hazards’) is a
composite index developed by the CDRC for Great Britain measuring how
‘healthy’ neighbourhoods are. It is based on: accessibility to
retail outlets (fast food outlets, pubs, off-licences, tobacconists,
gambling outlets), accessibility to health services (GPs, hospitals,
pharmacies, dentists, leisure services), and the quality of the
physical environment (green space, air pollution). AHAH is produced
for Lower Super Output Areas for England and Wales, and Data Zones
for Scotland.
