Social Associations

Measurement Period: 2021

This indicator shows the number of membership associations per 10,000 population. Associations include business, labor, political, professional, athletic, civic, volunteer, and religious organizations.

Why is this important?

Social association and community engagement, along with relationships with family and friends, represent an individual’s social support network. Research suggests that belonging to voluntary groups and membership organizations enhances perceptions of social trust, and that individuals with strong networks are more likely to perform healthy behaviors. Furthermore, studies have shown that individuals living in areas with high levels of social trust and with strong social networks experience better health outcomes compared to individuals who lack such support.
