Where young adults lack mental health care

What it does

Every year: blocks with many residents aged 15 to 34 and the fewest psychologists and counsellors within 3 km, ranked, for a mental health service.

In one sentence: Monthly on the 1st at 08:00, in Bogota, count who lives around, count the psychologists, counselors and mental health clinics within 2 km of each, work out new fields, sort them by per_service and keep the top 20, then email the list to you.

Why it is useful

Young people need care close by. The gaps are ranked for the service.

The time it saves

Monthly on the 1st at 08:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 180 minutes each time; it runs about 1 time a month, so it saves about 3 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 7 blocks.
