The National Neighborhood Data Archive is a data resource supporting research on neighborhoods and health
The National Neighborhood Data Archive (NaNDA) is a publicly available, federally funded, data resource to support research on neighborhoods and health. Housed in SRC and ICPSR at the Institute for Social Research, NaNDA datasets have been downloaded over 40,000 times since 2019, and generated over 120 data related publications. These include policy-informing publications, such as the scientific statement from the American Heart Association on the effects of neighborhoods on cardiovascular disease (Kershaw, 2024), and a federal report on building a robust data infrastructure to support social determinants of health (US Dept of Health and Human Services, 2024).
