The map, by the Geographic Data Science Lab, measures Access to Health Assets and Hazards (AHAH).

The index for the UK shows how “healthy” neighbourhoods are, based on: access retailers such as fast food outlets, pubs, gambling outlets and off-licences; access to health services; air quality and access to natural environment.
Using the map, certain areas in Berkshire can be deemed "health hotspots", while others show a more concerning trend.
According to the data, central Reading, Windsor and Slough have the least healthy town centres in Berkshire.
The map highlights areas based on colour, and ranks towns from "1st" to "10th", with one being the best in terms of health and 10 being the worst.
