Health Behavior data reflect information about the population age 18 and
older. We recommend caution in using these estimates to calculate
percentage rates at the zip code level, and we do not recommend comparing zip
codes in terms of percentage rates. Users who choose to calculate rates
should use the Adult Population as the denominator, not Total Population.

-
Custom Range (self define up to five interval ranges, specifying ‘from’ and
‘to’ numbers for each range. Note: all range text boxes must be filled with
numeric values.
-
To view the thematic map, click on ‘Create a Thematic Map’ button located at
bottom on the page. The legend is located to the right of the map to aid with
interpretation.
