County Health Rankings has posted a new resource.
The high cost of child care has forced many American families to make challenging choices between paying for their children’s care or other necessities such as food, safe housing and health care.

To help communities better understand the burden, we’ve released a new measure, Child Care Cost Burden. It captures child care costs for a household with two children as a percent of median household income in the county.
