a. Deaths due to CVD per 100,000 population; The downloadable data tables shared on the City Health Dashboard website were not released as a micro-level downloadable datasets from NCHS/RDC, rather .csv aggregated data tables whose analyses were conducted per NCHS disclosure requirements in a secure environment and released as approved output. The findings and conclusions on this website are those of the author(s) and do not represent the views of the Research Data Center, the National Center for Health Statistics, or the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. NCHS does not recommend further analysis of these tables because linking them to individually identifiable data from other NCHS or non-NCHS datasets could potentially cause disclosure. If you believe a disclosure has occurred, please contact info@cityhealthdashboard.com and RDCA@cdc.gov.
b. Cities were considered ‘high’ in population for a given group or sub-group if the city total population of that group was in the top population quintile for that group across cities included in the sample. Quantiles may be less than 20% of the sample because ties are automatically sent to the lower quintile.
c. Significantly different from cities with a high population proportion non-Hispanic whites at P<.01.
d. Significantly different from cities with a high population proportion non-Hispanic whites at P<.05.
P-values for between-group differences calculated by independent sample t-test.
