    Interestingly, statistical analysis of SPA8 cities household income, obesity rates, diabetes rates and smoking rates, along with Gallup's monetization of health outcomes methodology clearly demonstrate that BCHD provides no health benefits for its cities. In fact, while not statistically significant, the estimate coefficient of the BCHD Dummy Variable is negative, indicating that the BCHD cities UNDERPERFORM their household income levels. Public Comment - RECORDED - interesting study. BCHD has no positive health outcomes for the Beach Cities after expanding the taxpayer-funded Gallup methodology to all of SPA8 with LACDPH data. It seems that a $400K Gallup contract study needs to be reviewed and vetted. https://www.stopbchd.com/post/bchd-has-no-impact-on-health-outcomes-using-spa8-wide-health-data-from-lacdph
