Socio-economic Status
Socio-economic status is a measure of an individual's or group's economic and social position in a given society. It is based on factors such as income, wealth, education level, occupation, and job security. It is an important factor in understanding differences in health outcomes, access to resources, and overall well-being. It can also be used to identify groups that are at higher risk of experiencing health disparities, such as low-income communities, racial and ethnic minorities, and those living in rural areas. By better understanding socio-economic status, we can develop strategies to reduce health disparities and build healthier, more equitable communities.
