Regional Health and Education Disparities: A Comparative Analysis of Mid Atlantic and New England Cities

In our study, we delve into vital indicators that paint a clear picture of two distinct regions in the United States. Our detailed analysis of infant mortality rates, high school non-completion, drug overdose, and suicide statistics reveals compelling disparities. These findings offer valuable insights for policymakers and researchers as they seek to address the complex issues surrounding health and education in these regions, ultimately contributing to the betterment of these communities.

Problem Description:
