Human needs are hierarchical with food, water, air, and income providing the basics of living (A. Maslow, 1986). At the community level, these measures are correlated with population health – the fewer basics of living in a defined population, the more disease, lower quality of life, or lack of health care. Basics of living can be represented using nine county-level indicators (Shao S, Su S-C, and Kanarek N, ARQOL 2006). This Basics of Living profile provides county demographics, BOL index, the nine BOL determinants and related health indicators.
