Notes
Underlying cause of death is malignant neoplasms (ICD-10 codes: C00-C97).
Rates presented in this data table represent rates per 100,000 population and are age-adjusted to the 2000 U.S. standard population age distribution. Since death rates are affected by the population composition of a given area, age-adjusted death rates should be used for comparisons between areas because they control for differences in population composition.
