Description

CDC PLACES (Population Level Analysis and Community Estimates) is a CDC project that delivers model-based small-area estimates of health measures across the United States. It covers chronic disease risk factors, health outcomes, prevention practices, disabilities, and health status, reported at the county, place, census tract, and ZIP Code Tabulation Area levels. By combining national survey data with population and geographic data, PLACES gives local decision-makers usable estimates even where direct survey samples are too small. CDC PLACES is an upstream data source for KnowWhereGraph.
