About these numbers
- Self-reported by adults in the BRFSS telephone survey, so conditions that were never diagnosed or measured are missed.
- Crude, not age-adjusted: states with older populations score higher partly because of age.
- Do not compare these values with the county estimates on this site: those are age-adjusted model estimates.
