– | Data suppressed
N/A | Data not available
* | Multi-County Data
For some indicators, data is not available at the county level and counties are aggregated into groups:
- “Regions” refer to the 10 North Carolina Local Health Director Association Regions.
- “West,” “Central,” and “East” categorizations are based on the regions reported for the North Carolina Youth Tobacco Survey. *Central region estimates are not representative of the total population due to a low response rate.
- Mental health emergency room visit rates are aggregated into the 7 LME/MCO regions.
† | Rates based on fewer than ten cases are unstable and should be interpreted with caution. Refer to the State Center for Health Statistics Infant Mortality Report for the number of infant deaths by county.
