In this essay, authors highlight the importance of democratizing data for NHPIs — diverse populations that historically have had little access to their data — in the context of achieving equity in health and the social drivers of health. Authors provide a framework for evaluating community accessibility of data, which includes concepts of data availability, salience, cost, and report back.

This study examines the impact of gentrification exposure on hypertension and diabetes control. Using data from adults in low-socioeconomic status (SES) areas in 2014, the authors analyze the influence of gentrification occurring between 2015 and 2019 on disease control in 2019, while considering factors such as residential moves, race, ethnicity, and age.

Despite decades of research exposing health disparities between populations and communities in the U.S., health equity goals remain largely unfulfilled. Authors argue these failures call for applying an equity lens in the way data systems are approached, from collection and analysis to interpretation and distribution. Hence, health equity requires data equity.
