Notes:
Created by statecancerprofiles.cancer.gov on 05/20/2024 9:05 am.
* Data has been suppressed to ensure confidentiality and stability of rate and trend estimates.
** Data are too sparse to provide stable estimates of annual rates needed to calculate trend.
1 Priority indices were created by ordering from rates that are rising and above the comparison rate to rates that are falling and below the comparison rate.
2 Recent trend in death rates is usually an Average Annual Percent Change (AAPC) based on the APCs calculated by Joinpoint Version 4.8.0.0. Due to data availability issues, the time period and/or calculation method used in the calculation of the trends may differ for selected geographic areas.
3 Rate ratio is the county rate divided by the US rate. Previous versions of this table used one-year rates for states and five-year rates for counties. As of June 2018, only five-year rates are used.
Source: Death data provided by the National Vital Statistics System public use data file. Death rates calculated by the National Cancer Institute using SEER*Stat. Death rates are age-adjusted to the 2000 US standard population (19 age groups: <1, 1-4, 5-9, ... , 80-84, 85+). The Healthy People 2020 goals are based on rates adjusted using different methods but the differences should be minimal. Population counts for denominators are based on Census populations as modified by NCI. The US Population Data File is used with mortality data.
Note: When the population size for a denominator is small, the rates may be unstable. A rate is unstable when a small change in the numerator (e.g., only one or two additional cases) has a dramatic effect on the calculated rate. Suppression is used to avoid misinterpretation when rates are unstable.
State Cancer Registries may provide more current or more local data. Data presented on the State Cancer Profiles Web Site may differ from statistics reported by the State Cancer Registries (for more information).
Data for the following has been suppressed to ensure confidentiality and stability of rate and trend estimates:
Alexander County, Bond County, Brown County, Calhoun County, Cass County, Clark County, Clay County, Cumberland County, De Witt County, Edwards County, Ford County, Gallatin County, Greene County, Hamilton County, Hardin County, Henderson County, Jasper County, Jo Daviess County, Johnson County, Lawrence County, Logan County, Marshall County, Mason County, Massac County, McDonough County, Menard County, Mercer County, Moultrie County, Perry County, Piatt County, Pike County, Pope County, Pulaski County, Putnam County, Richland County, Schuyler County, Scott County, Stark County, Union County, Wabash County, Warren County, Washington County, White County
Trend for the following could not be reliably determined due to small number of deaths per year:
Crawford County, Douglas County, Fayette County, Grundy County, Hancock County, Jersey County, Randolph County, Wayne County, Woodford County
Interpret Rankings provides insight into interpreting cancer statistics. When the population size for a denominator is small, the rates may be unstable. A rate is unstable when a small change in the numerator (e.g., only one or two additional cases) has a dramatic effect on the calculated rate.
Data for United States does not include Puerto Rico.
