Objectives
This report presents health statistics
from the 2010 National Health Interview
Survey (NHIS) for the civilian
noninstitutionalized adult population,
classified by sex, age, race and
Hispanic origin, education, family
income, poverty status, health
insurance coverage, marital status, and
place and region of residence.
Estimates are presented for selected
chronic conditions and mental health
characteristics, functional limitations,
health status, health behaviors, health
care access and utilization, and human
immunodeficiency virus testing.
Percentages and percent distributions
are presented in both age-adjusted and
unadjusted versions.
Data Source
NHIS is a household, multistage
probability sample survey conducted
annually by interviewers of the U.S.
Census Bureau for the Centers for
Disease Control and Preventions National
Center for Health Statistics. In 2010, data
were collected on 27,157 adults in the
Sample Adult questionnaire. The
conditional response rate was 77.3%, and
the final response rate was 60.8%. The
health information for adults in this report
was obtained from one randomly selected
adult per family. In very rare instances
where the sample adult was not able to
respond for himself or herself, a proxy was
used.
Highlights
In 2010, 61% of adults aged 18 years
and over had excellent or very good
health. Twelve percent of adults had been
told by a doctor or health professional that
they had heart disease, 25% had been
told on two or more visits that they had
hypertension, 9% had been told they had
diabetes, and 22% had been told they had
some form of arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis,
gout, lupus, or fibromyalgia. Twenty-one
percent of adults were current smokers,
and 21% were former smokers. Based on
estimates of body mass index, 35% of
adults were overweight and 27% were
obese.

Introduction
This report is one in a set of reports
summarizing data from the 2010
National Health Interview Survey
(NHIS)a multipurpose health survey
conducted by the Centers for Disease
Control and Preventions (CDC)
National Center for Health Statistics
(NCHS). This report provides national
estimates for a broad range of health
measures for the U.S. civilian
noninstitutionalized population of adults.
The other two reports in this set provide
estimates of selected health measures for
the U.S. population and for children
under age 18 years (1,2). These three
volumes of descriptive statistics and
highlights are published for each year of
NHIS (35) and, since 1997, have
replaced the annual, one-volume Current
Estimates series (6).
Estimates are presented here for
selected chronic conditions, selected
mental health characteristics, functional
limitations, health status, health
behaviors, health care access and
utilization, and human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing
status, and are derived from the Sample
Adult Core component of the annual
NHIS Basic Module. These health
estimates are shown in Tables 141 for
various population subgroups, including
those defined by sex, age, race and
Hispanic origin, education (for persons
aged 25 and over), family income,
poverty status, health insurance
coverage, marital status, place of
residence, and region of residence.
Appendix I contains brief technical
Methods
Data Source
The main objective of NHIS is to
monitor the health of the U.S.
population through the collection and
analysis of data on a broad range of
health topics. The target population for
NHIS is the civilian noninstitutionalized
population of the United States. Persons
excluded are patients in long-term care
institutions (e.g., nursing homes for the
elderly, hospitals for the chronically ill
or physically or intellectually disabled,
and wards for abused or neglected
children), correctional facilities (e.g.,
prisons or jails, juvenile detention
centers, and halfway houses),
active-duty Armed Forces personnel
(although their civilian family members
are included), and U.S. nationals living
in foreign countries. Each year, a
representative sample of households
across the country is selected for NHIS
using a multistage cluster sample design.
Details on the sample design used for
Estimation Procedures
The Sample Adult weights were
used to produce the national health
estimates contained in this report. For
each health measure, both weighted
frequencies and percentages (or rates)
for all adults and for various subgroups
of the adult population are shown. All
counts are expressed in thousands.
Counts for persons of unknown status
with respect to health characteristics of
interest are not shown separately in the
tables, nor are they included in the
calculation of percentages (or rates), to
provide a more straightforward
presentation of the data. For all health
measures in this report, the percentages
with unknown values are typically small
(generally less than 1%) and are shown
in Appendix I, Table II. Nevertheless,
these unknown cases are included in the
total population counts shown in
selected tables. Therefore, slightly
different percentages than those shown
in the tables may be obtained if
percentages are calculated based on the
frequencies and population counts
presented in the tables.
In addition, some of the
sociodemographic variables that are
used to delineate various population
subgroups have unknown values. For
most of these variables, the percentage
Transition to 2000
Census-based Weights
In Summary Health Statistics
reports prior to 2003, weights for NHIS
data were derived from 1990
census-based postcensal population
estimates. Beginning with 2003 data,
NHIS transitioned to weights derived
from 2000 census-based population
estimates. The impact of this transition
was assessed for the 2002 NHIS by
comparing estimates for selected health
characteristics using the 1990
census-based weights with those using
the 2000 census-based weights.
Although the effect of new population
controls on survey estimates differed by
type of health characteristic, the effect
of this change on health characteristic
rates was small but was somewhat
larger for weighted frequencies (16).
Age Adjustment
Beginning with the 2002 Summary
Health Statistics report, estimates have
been provided in two sets of tables.
Unless otherwise specified, percentages
in the first set (Tables 141) were age
adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
standard population. Age adjustment
was used to permit comparison among
various sociodemographic subgroups
that may have different age structures
(17,18). The age groups used for age
adjustment in this report are 1844,
4564, 6574, and 75 years and over,
unless otherwise noted (Appendix I,
Table I). Health insurance and education
are restricted to certain age groups and
are therefore adjusted accordingly (see
relevant table footnotes for age groups).
Age-adjusted estimates shown in the
tables may not match age-adjusted
estimates for the same health
characteristic in other reports if different
age groups were used for age
adjustment. Tables IVXXIII in
Appendix III provide unadjusted
estimates so that current estimates may
be compared with those published in the
19972001 Summary Health Statistics
reports to determine the effects of age
adjustment on the 2010 estimates (see
Appendix I for details on age
adjustment). Frequency tables have been
removed from the set of unadjusted
tables in Appendix III to eliminate
redundancy.

Selected Highlights
This section presents brief bulleted
summaries of the estimates shown in
Tables 141. Estimated percentages were
age adjusted by the direct method using
the 2000 U.S. population as the standard
population. In most cases, the age
groups used to adjust estimated
percentages are the same age groups
presented in the tables (see table notes
for age adjustment groups). All
estimates were calculated using the
Sample Adult weight variable, which is
calibrated by NCHS staff to produce
numbers consistent with estimates of the
adult civilian noninstitutionalized
population of the United States by sex,
age, and race and ethnicity, based on
projections from U.S. Census 2000.
Selected Circulatory
Conditions (Tables 1 and 2)

disease, 6% had ever been told they
had coronary heart disease, 25% had
been told on two or more visits they
had hypertension, and 3% had ever
been told they had experienced a
stroke.

over, men were more likely to have
ever been told they had coronary
heart disease than women. The
prevalence of hypertension in men
Selected Respiratory
Conditions (Tables 3 and 4)

percent had ever been told they had
asthma, and 8% still had asthma.
Eight percent of adults had been
told in the past 12 months that they
had hay fever, 13% had been told
they had sinusitis, and 4% had been
told they had chronic bronchitis.

been told they had asthma, hay
fever, sinusitis, or chronic bronchitis
than men. Men were more likely to
have been told they had emphysema
than women.
+ When results are considered by
single race without regard to
ethnicity, Asian adults were less
likely to have been told in the past
12 months that they had sinusitis,
chronic bronchitis, or asthma (ever
or still) than either black or white
adults.
+ Hispanic adults had lower rates of
asthma, hay fever, emphysema, and
chronic bronchitis than non-Hispanic
white adults and non-Hispanic black
adults. Hispanic adults also were
less likely to have been told in the
past 12 months that they had
sinusitis than were non-Hispanic
black adults.
+ Adults with a bachelors degree or
higher were less likely to have been
told they had emphysema or chronic
bronchitis compared with other
education groups.
+ Adults in poor families had higher
percentages of emphysema, asthma,
and chronic bronchitis than adults in
families that were not poor.
Feelings of Sadness,
Hopelessness,
Worthlessness, or That
Everything Is an Effort
(Tables 13 and 14)
+ Overall, 12% of adults experienced
feelings of sadness for all, most, or
some of the time during the 30 days
prior to the interview; 7% felt
hopeless; 5% felt worthless; and
16% felt that everything was an
effort for all, most, or some of the
time during the same time period.
+ Fourteen percent of women felt sad
for all, most, or some of the time
during the 30 days prior to the
interview compared with 10% of
men. Women were also more likely
to have feelings of hopelessness,
worthlessness, or that everything is
an effort during the 30 days prior to
the interview than men.
+ When results are considered by
single race and ethnicity, nonHispanic white adults were less
likely to have feelings of sadness
all, most, or some of the time during
the 30 days prior to the interview
than either non-Hispanic black
adults or Hispanic adults.
Non-Hispanic black adults were
more likely to feel that everything is
an effort all, most, or some of the
time during the 30 days prior to the
Feelings of Nervousness or
Restlessness (Tables 15
and 16)
+ Overall, 18% of adults experienced
feelings of nervousness and 19% of
adults experienced feelings of
restlessness for all, most, or some of
the time during the 30 days prior to
the interview.
+ Twenty percent of women felt
nervous for all, most, or some of the
time during the 30 days prior to the
interview compared with 15% of
men. Similarly, women were more
likely to feel restless all, most, or
some of the time during the 30 days
prior to the interview than men.
+ Adults with less than a high school
diploma were at least three times
more likely to have experienced
feelings of nervousness or
restlessness all or most of the time
during the 30 days prior to the
interview than those with a
bachelors degree or higher.
+ Adults in poor families were more
likely than adults in families that
were not poor to feel nervous or

days prior to the interview compared
with 21% of those who were
uninsured and 16% of those who
had private health insurance. Adults
under age 65 years who had
Medicaid health care coverage were
more likely to experience feelings of
restlessness for all, most, or some of
the time during the 30 days prior to
the interview than those adults under
age 65 years who were either
uninsured or had private health
insurance.
+ Among adults aged 65 years and
over, 26% of those who had
Medicaid and Medicare health care
coverage experienced feelings of
nervousness for all, most, or some
Difficulties in Physical
Functioning (Tables 18
and 19)
+ Overall, 15% of adults had great
difficulty with at least one of nine
physical activities performed without
help and without the use of special
equipment (responding very

physical activity guidelines for
aerobic activity only, 33% of adults
were inactive, 20% of adults were
insufficiently active, and 47% were
sufficiently active based on their
participation in leisure-time physical
activity.
+ According to the 2008 federal
physical activity guidelines for
aerobic and strengthening activity
combined, 49% of adults met neither
the aerobic nor muscle-strengthening
guideline, 4% met the musclestrengthening guideline only, 26%
met the aerobic guideline only, and
21% met the full guidelines for both
aerobic and muscle-strengthening
activity, based on their participation
in leisure-time physical activity.
+ Women were more likely than men
to be inactive or insufficiently active
and less likely to be sufficiently
active in terms of aerobic
leisure-time physical activity. Men
were more likely than women to
have met the full guidelines for both
aerobic and muscle-strengthening
activity based on their participation
in leisure-time physical activity.
+ When leisure-time physical activity
is considered by single race and
ethnicity, non-Hispanic white adults
were more likely to have met the
full guidelines for both aerobic and
muscle-strengthening activity based
on their participation in leisure-time
physical activity than Hispanic
adults or non-Hispanic black adults.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
In separate questions, respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had: hypertension (or high blood pressure), coronary heart disease, angina
(or angina pectoris), heart attack (or myocardial infarction), any other heart condition or disease not already mentioned, or a stroke. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
Includes coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, heart attack, or any other heart condition or disease.
Includes coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, or heart attack.
4
Persons had to have been told on two or more different visits that they had hypertension or high blood pressure to be classified as hypertensive.
5
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I), but they are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. The numbers in this table are rounded.
6
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
7
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
8
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
9
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
14
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
15
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.

In separate questions, respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had: hypertension (or high blood pressure), coronary heart disease,
angina (or angina pectoris), heart attack (or myocardial infarction), any other heart condition or disease not already mentioned, or a stroke. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
Includes coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, heart attack, or any other heart condition or disease.
Includes coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, or heart attack.
4
Persons had to have been told on two or more different visits that they had hypertension or high blood pressure to be classified as hypertensive.
5
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
6
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
7
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.

8
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
9
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
10
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
11
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years,
6574 years, and 75 years and over.
12
13
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see
Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be
comparable with those from earlier years.
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
15
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for
persons under age 65 (1844 years and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
16
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table IV in Appendix III.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Quantity zero.
1
Respondents were asked in two separate questions if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had emphysema or asthma. Respondents who had been told they had
asthma were asked if they still had asthma. Respondents were asked in three separate questions if they had been told by a doctor or other health professional in the past 12 months that they had hay
fever, sinusitis, or bronchitis. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I), but they are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. The numbers in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Quantity zero.
1
Respondents were asked in two separate questions if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had emphysema or asthma. Respondents who had been told they had
asthma were asked if they still had asthma. Respondents were asked in three separate questions if they had been told by a doctor or other health professional in the past 12 months that they had hay
fever, sinusitis, or bronchitis. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.

6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
8
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
9
Based on family income and family size using the Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
12
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix I). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for
persons under age 65 (1844 years and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
13
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table V in Appendix III.

Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
. . . Category not applicable.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
Respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had a cancer or malignancy of any kind. They were then asked to name the kind of cancer they
had. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Further, the denominators for calculating cervical cancer and prostate cancer
percentages are sex-specific, while the denominators for calculating breast cancer percentages encompass all adults. Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
8
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
9
11
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table VI in Appendix III.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
In separate questions, respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had: an ulcer (including a stomach, duodenal, or peptic ulcer) or diabetes
(or sugar diabetes; female respondents were instructed to exclude pregnancy-related diabetes). Responses from persons who said they had borderline diabetes were treated as unknown with
respect to diabetes. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
In separate questions, respondents were asked if they had been told in the last 12 months by a doctor or other health professional that they had: weak or failing kidneys (excluding kidney stones,
bladder infections, or incontinence) or any kind of liver condition.
3
Respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had some form of arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, lupus, or fibromyalgia. Those who answered
yes were classified as having an arthritis diagnosis. Respondents were also asked: During the past 30 days, have you had pain, aching, or stiffness in or around a joint? (excluding back and neck)
and, if yes, Did your joint symptoms first begin more than 3 months ago? Respondents with symptoms that began more than 3 months ago were classified in this table as having chronic joint
symptoms.
4
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I) but they are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. The numbers in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
6
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
7
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
8
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
13
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
14
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
In separate questions, respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had: an ulcer (including a stomach, duodenal, or peptic ulcer) or diabetes
(or sugar diabetes; female respondents were instructed to exclude pregnancy-related diabetes). Responses from persons who said they had borderline diabetes were treated as unknown with
respect to diabetes. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
In separate questions, respondents were asked if they had been told in the last 12 months by a doctor or other health professional that they had: weak or failing kidneys (excluding kidney stones,
bladder infections, or incontinence) or any kind of liver condition.
3
Respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had some form of arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, lupus, or fibromyalgia. Those who answered
yes were classified as having an arthritis diagnosis. Respondents were also asked: During the past 30 days, have you had pain, aching, or stiffness in or around a joint? (excluding back and neck)
and, if yes, Did your joint symptoms first begin more than 3 months ago? Respondents with symptoms that began more than 3 months ago were classified in this table as having chronic joint
symptoms.
4
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
6
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
7
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
8
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
9
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
11
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
14
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for
persons under age 65 (1844 years and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
15
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table VII in Appendix III.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.

1
Respondents were asked, During the past three months, did you have a severe headache or migraine? Respondents were instructed to report pain that had lasted a whole day or more, and
conversely, not to report fleeting or minor aches or pains. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
Respondents were asked, During the past three months, did you have neck pain? Respondents were instructed to report pain that had lasted a whole day or more, and conversely, not to report
fleeting or minor aches or pains. Persons may be represented in more than one column.
3
Respondents were asked, During the past three months, did you have low back pain? Respondents were instructed to report pain that had lasted a whole day or more, and conversely, not to report
fleeting or minor aches or pains. Persons may be represented in more than one column.
4
Respondents were asked, During the past three months, did you have facial ache or pain in the jaw muscles or the joint in front of the ear? Respondents were instructed to report pain that had
lasted a whole day or more, and conversely, not to report fleeting or minor aches or pains. Persons may be represented in more than one column.
5
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I) but they are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. The numbers in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
7
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
6
8
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
9
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
14
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
15
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
Respondents were asked, During the past three months, did you have a severe headache or migraine? Respondents were instructed to report pain that had lasted a whole day or more, and
conversely, not to report fleeting or minor aches or pains. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
Respondents were asked, During the past three months, did you have neck pain? Respondents were instructed to report pain that had lasted a whole day or more, and conversely, not to report
fleeting or minor aches or pains. Persons may be represented in more than one column.
3
Respondents were asked, During the past three months, did you have low back pain? Respondents were instructed to report pain that had lasted a whole day or more, and conversely, not to report
fleeting or minor aches or pains. Persons may be represented in more than one column.
4
Respondents were asked, During the past three months, did you have facial ache or pain in the jaw muscles or the joint in front of the ear? Respondents were instructed to report pain that had
lasted a whole day or more, and conversely, not to report fleeting or minor aches or pains. Persons may be represented in more than one column.
5
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
7
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
8
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
6
9
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
10
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
11
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
12
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
15
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for
persons under age 65 (1844 years and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
16
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table VIII in Appendix III.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50%, and should be used with caution as they do not meet the standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
1
Respondents were asked, These next questions are about your hearing WITHOUT the use of hearing aids or other listening devices. Is your hearing excellent, good, [do you have] a little trouble
hearing, moderate trouble, a lot of trouble, or are you deaf? For this table, a little trouble hearing, moderate trouble, a lot of trouble, and deaf are combined into one category. Data analysts
should note that this question contains more response levels than the 2006 version, which had the following categories: good, a little trouble, a lot of trouble, and deaf. In 2006, hearing trouble
was defined by the following categories: a little trouble, a lot of trouble, and deaf. Estimates of hearing trouble for 2007 may not be comparable with earlier years. A person may be represented in
more than one column.
2
Regarding their vision, respondents were asked, Do you have any trouble seeing, even when wearing glasses or contact lenses? Respondents were also asked, Are you blind or unable to see at
all? For this table, any trouble seeing and blind are combined into one category. A person may be represented in more than one column.
3
Respondents were asked, Have you lost all of your upper and lower natural (permanent) teeth? A person may be represented in more than one column.
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I) but they are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. The numbers in this table are rounded.
5
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
6
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
4
7
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
8
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
13
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
14
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
1
Respondents were asked, These next questions are about your hearing WITHOUT the use of hearing aids or other listening devices. Is your hearing excellent, good, [do you have] a little trouble
hearing, moderate trouble, a lot of trouble, or are you deaf? For this table, a little trouble hearing, moderate trouble, a lot of trouble, and deaf are combined into one category. Data analysts
should note that this question contains more response levels that the 2006 version, which had the following categories: good, a little trouble, a lot of trouble, and deaf. In 2006, hearing trouble
was defined by the following categories: a little trouble, a lot of trouble, and deaf. Estimates of hearing trouble for 2007 may not be comparable with earlier years. A person may be represented in
more than one column.
2
Regarding their vision, respondents were asked, Do you have any trouble seeing, even when wearing glasses or contact lenses? Respondents were also asked, Are you blind or unable to see at
all? For this table, any trouble seeing and blind are combined into one category. A person may be represented in more than one column.
3
Respondents were asked, Have you lost all of your upper and lower natural (permanent) teeth? A person may be represented in more than one column.
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
5
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
6
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
7
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
4
8
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
9
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
11
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
14
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for
persons under age 65 (1844 years and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
15
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table IX in Appendix III.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
In four separate questions, respondents were asked how often in the past 30 days they felt: so sad that nothing could cheer them up, hopeless, worthless, or that everything was an effort.
Respondents could choose from among five response categories: All of the time, Most of the time, Some of the time, A little of the time, or None of the time. For this table, All and Most
are combined, and Some is shown separately.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I) but they are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. The numbers in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
4
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
9
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see
Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be
comparable with those from earlier years.
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
11
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
12
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
In four separate questions, respondents were asked how often in the past 30 days they felt: so sad that nothing could cheer them up, hopeless, worthless, or that everything was an effort.
Respondents could choose from among five response categories: All of the time, Most of the time, Some of the time, A little of the time, or None of the time. For this table, All and Most
are combined, and Some is shown separately.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
5
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
8
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
9
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
12
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for
persons under age 65 years (1844 years and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
13
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table X in Appendix III.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Quantity zero.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
1
In two separate questions, respondents were asked how often they felt nervous or restless in the past 30 days. Respondents could choose among five response categories: All of the time, Most of
the time, Some of the time, A little of the time, or None of the time. For this table, All and Most are combined, and Some is shown separately.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I) but they are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. The numbers in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

Quantity zero.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
1
In two separate questions, respondents were asked how often they felt nervous or restless in the past 30 days. Respondents could choose among five response categories: All of the time, Most of
the time, Some of the time, A little of the time, or None of the time. For this table, All and Most are combined, and Some is shown separately.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
5
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
8
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
9
10
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see
Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be
comparable with those from earlier years.
11
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XI in Appendix III.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
1
Respondents who had worked during the past year were asked, During the past 12 months, about how many days did you miss work at a job or business because of illness or injury (do not include
maternity leave)? In addition, all respondents were asked, During the past 12 months, about how many days did illness or injury keep you in the bed more than half of the day (include days while an
overnight patient in a hospital)?
2
Unknowns for the columns Work-loss days in past 12 months and Bed days in past 12 months were not included in the denominators when calculating rates in the columns for days per person
(see Appendix I). They are, however, included in the columns All employed persons aged 18 years and over and All persons aged 18 years and over. The numbers in this table are rounded.
3
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
11
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
12
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

1
In a series of separate questions, respondents were asked the degree of difficulty they experienced performing nine physical activities by themselves and without using any special equipment. The
activities included walking a quarter of a mile (or three city blocks); standing for 2 hours; stooping, bending, or kneeling; climbing 10 steps without resting; sitting for 2 hours; reaching over ones head;
using ones fingers to grasp or handle small objects; lifting or carrying a 10-pound object (such as a full bag of groceries); and pushing or pulling a large object (such as a living room chair). The
response categories consisted of not at all difficult, only a little difficult, somewhat difficult, very difficult, cant do at all, or do not do this activity. For this table, response categories very
difficult and cant do at all are combined and shown in the columns.
2
Consists of a very difficult or cant do at all response to at least one of the nine physical activities shown in columns 412.
Frequencies of persons reporting no difficulty in physical functioning, only a little or some difficulty, or that they do not do this activity, and those for whom the information is unknown (see
Appendix I), are not shown separately but are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. Numbers in this table are rounded.
3
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
In accordance with the 1997 Standards for Federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
12
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
13
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
In a series of separate questions, respondents were asked the degree of difficulty they experienced performing nine physical activities by themselves, and without using any special equipment. The activities included walking a quarter of a mile (or three city
blocks); standing for 2 hours; stooping, bending, or kneeling; climbing 10 steps without resting; sitting for 2 hours; reaching over ones head; using ones fingers to grasp or handle small objects; lifting or carrying a 10-pound object (such as a full bag of
groceries); and pushing or pulling a large object (such as a living room chair). The response categories consisted of not at all difficult, only a little difficult, somewhat difficult, very difficult, cant do at all, or do not do this activity. For this table,
response categories very difficult and cant do at all are combined and shown in the columns.
2
Consists of a very difficult or cant do at all response to at least one of the nine physical activities shown in columns 311.
Persons who respond do not do this activity, as well as those for whom the information is unknown, are not included in the denominator when calculating percentages. Percentages in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups
shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons
of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness.
For example, the category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
7
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category Two or more races will be greater
than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
8
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race.
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over.
10
GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma.
11
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those
persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
9
12
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the
poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
13
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified
separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years
and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only
a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 (1844 years
and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
14
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age
groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XII in Appendix III.

precision.
1
Based on a question in the survey that asked respondents, Would you say [subject names] health in general was excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor? This information was obtained during a
part of the interview that allowed proxy responses, such that a knowledgeable adult family member could respond on behalf of adults not taking part in the interview; however, the sample in this table
is based on the reported health status (possibly by proxy) for the Sample Adult only. Excellent and very good are combined in this table, as are fair and poor.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I). They are, however, included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. Numbers may not add
to totals due to rounding.
3
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
4
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
11
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
12
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

Based on a question in the survey that asked respondents, Would you say [subject names] health in general was excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor? This information was obtained during a
part of the interview that allowed proxy responses, such that a knowledgeable adult family member could respond on behalf of adults not taking part in the interview; however, the sample in this table
is based on the reported health status (possibly by proxy) for the Sample Adult only. Excellent and very good are combined in this table, as are fair and poor.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
5
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
4
6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
8
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups (2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over).
9
10
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see
Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be
comparable with those from earlier years.
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
12
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for
persons under age 65 (1844 years and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
13
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XIII in Appendix III.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
Based on a survey question that asked respondents, Would you say [subject names] health in general is excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor? Proxy responses were allowed for adults not taking part in this portion of the interview; however, the
sample in this table is based on the reported health status (possibly by proxy) for the Sample Adult only. Excellent and very good are combined in this table, as are fair and poor. All sample adult respondents were also asked, Compared with twelve
months ago, would you say your health is better, worse, or about the same?
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I). They are, however, included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. Numbers may not add to totals because of rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups
shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons
of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness.
For example, the category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category Two or more races will be greater
than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race.
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over.
8
GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma.
9
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those
persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
7
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the
poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
12
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.
SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.
11
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified
separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years
and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only
a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
Based on a survey question that asked respondents, Would you say [subject names] health in general is excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor? Proxy responses were allowed for adults not taking part in this portion of the interview; however, the
sample in this table is based on the reported health status (possibly by proxy) for the Sample Adult only. Excellent and very good are combined in this table, as are fair and poor. All sample adult respondents were also asked, Compared with twelve
months ago, would you say your health is better, worse, or about the same?
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
5
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups
shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons
of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness.
For example, the category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category Two or more races will be greater
than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race.
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups (2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over).
9
GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma.
10
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those
persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
8
11
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the
poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
12
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified
separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years
and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only
a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 (1844 years
and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
13
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age
groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XIV in Appendix III.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
1
Based on two survey questions: Have you smoked at least 100 cigarettes in your entire life? and Do you now smoke cigarettes every day, some days, or not at all?
Current smokers have smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime and still currently smoke; every day smokers are current smokers who smoke every day; and some day smokers are current
smokers who smoke on some days.
2
Persons who have smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime but currently do not smoke at all.
Persons who have never smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime.
5
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I), but they are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. Numbers may not add to totals
due to rounding.
4
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
7
8
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
9
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
13
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
14
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
15
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
1
Based on two survey questions: Have you smoked at least 100 cigarettes in your entire life? and Do you now smoke cigarettes every day, some days, or not at all?
Current smokers have smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime and still currently smoke; every day smokers are current smokers who smoke every day; and some day smokers are current
smokers who smoke on some days.
2
Persons who have smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime but currently do not smoke at all.
Persons who have never smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime.
5
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
6
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
7
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
8
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
4
9
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
10
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
14
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
15
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for
persons under age 65 (1844 years and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons age 65 and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
16
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XV in Appendix III.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
1
Derived from several source questions: In ANY ONE YEAR, have you had at least 12 drinks of any type of alcoholic beverage?; In your ENTIRE LIFE, have you had at least 12 drinks of any type of
alcoholic beverage?; and In the PAST YEAR, how often did you drink any type of alcoholic beverage?
2
Categories are based on the same definitions used in the Health, United States publications (see Appendix II) and are derived from respondents self-reported responses to a series of questions
about alcohol consumption. A lifetime abstainer had fewer than 12 drinks in his or her lifetime; a former drinker had at least 12 drinks in his or her lifetime or in any 1 year AND had no drink in the past
year; and a current drinker had at least 12 drinks in his or her lifetime or in any 1 year AND had a drink 1365 times in the past year.
3
Former infrequent drinkers had at least 12 drinks in their lifetime but fewer than 12 drinks in any 1 year and no drinks in the last year. Former regular drinkers had at least 12 drinks in any 1 year and
no drinks in the last year. Current infrequent drinkers had at least 12 drinks in their lifetime and fewer than 12 drinks in the past year, and current regular drinkers had at least 12 drinks in the past
year. Former and current drinkers for whom the frequency of consumption or amount consumed was unknown are not included.
4
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I), but they are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. Numbers may not add to totals
due to rounding.
5
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
6
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
7
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
8
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
9
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
13
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
1
Derived from several source questions: In ANY ONE YEAR, have you had at least 12 drinks of any type of alcoholic beverage?; In your ENTIRE LIFE, have you had at least 12 drinks of any type
of alcoholic beverage?; and In the PAST YEAR, how often did you drink any type of alcoholic beverage?
2
Categories are based on the same definitions used in the Health, United States publications (see Appendix II) and are derived from respondents self-reported responses to a series of questions
about alcohol consumption. A lifetime abstainer had fewer than 12 drinks in his or her lifetime; a former drinker had at least 12 drinks in his or her lifetime or in any one year AND had no drink in the
past year; and a current drinker had at least 12 drinks in his or her lifetime or in any one year AND had a drink 1365 times in the past year.
3
Former infrequent drinkers had at least 12 drinks in their lifetime but fewer than 12 drinks in any 1 year and no drinks in the last year. Former regular drinkers had at least 12 drinks in any 1 year and
no drinks in the last year. Current infrequent drinkers had at least 12 drinks in their lifetime and fewer than 12 drinks in the past year, and current regular drinkers had at least 12 drinks in the past
year. Former and current drinkers for whom the frequency of consumption or amount consumed was unknown are not included.
4
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
6
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
7
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
8
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
9
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
11
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
14
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for
persons under age 65 (1844 years and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
15
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XVI in Appendix III.

Starting with Summary Health Statistics for U.S. Adults: National Health Interview Survey, 2010, measures of physical activity shown are changed to reflect the federal 2008 Physical Activity
Guidelines for Americans (available from: http://www.health.gov/PAGuidelines/). This new table shows both frequencies for adults who met the guidelines aerobic component and frequencies for
adults who met the full physical activity guidelines, including strengthening as well as aerobic activities. The 2008 federal guidelines recommend that for substantial health benefits, adults should
perform at least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) a week of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes (1 hour and 15 minutes) a week of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity, or an equivalent
combination. Aerobic activity should be performed in episodes of at least 10 minutes that are preferably spread throughout the week. The guidelines also recommend that adults perform musclestrengthening activities of moderate or high intensity involving all major muscle groups on 2 or more days a week for additional health benefits. NHIS questions ask about frequency and duration of
light- to moderate-intensity and vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activities, and frequency of leisure-time strengthening activities. Questions are phrased in terms of current behavior and lack a
specific reference period.
2
Inactive is participating in no leisure-time aerobic activity that lasted at least 10 minutes. Insufficiently active is participating in aerobic activities for 10 minutes or more but less than 150 minutes
per week. Sufficiently active, which meets 2008 federal physical activity guidelines, is participating in moderate-intensity leisure-time physical activity 150 minutes or more per week, or in vigorousintensity leisure-time physical activity 75 minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination.
3
Categories are mutually exclusive. Adults who met neither the aerobic nor muscle-strengthening 2008 federal physical activity guidelines may have engaged in lesser amounts of activity. Meeting only
the strengthening guidelines means participating in leisure-time muscle-strengthening activities 2 or more days per week with either no leisure-time aerobic activity or aerobic activity that did not meet
the guidelines. Meeting only the aerobic activity guidelines means participating in moderate-intensity leisure-time physical activities 150 minutes or more per week or vigorous-intensity activities 75
minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination, and not meeting the strengthening guidelines. Meeting both aerobic and strengthening guidelines is defined in footnote 1. The sum of
frequencies for adults who met the aerobic-only guidelines and for those who met both the aerobic and strengthening guidelines equals (within rounding error) the frequency of adults identified as
sufficiently active according to the 2008 federal guidelines for aerobic activity.
4
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I), but they are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. Numbers may not add to totals
because of rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
6
7
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
8
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
12
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
13
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
14
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

Starting with Summary Health Statistics for U.S. Adults: National Health Interview Survey, 2010, measures of physical activity shown are changed to reflect the federal 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans (available from: http://
www.health.gov/PAGuidelines/). This new table shows both percentages of adults who met the guidelines aerobic component and percentages of adults who met the full physical activity guidelines, including strengthening as well as aerobic activities. The
2008 federal guidelines recommend that for substantial health benefits, adults should perform at least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) a week of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes (1 hour and 15 minutes) a week of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical
activity, or an equivalent combination. Aerobic activity should be performed in episodes of at least 10 minutes that are preferably spread throughout the week. The guidelines also recommend that adults perform muscle-strengthening activities of moderate or
high intensity involving all major muscle groups on 2 or more days a week for additional health benefits. NHIS questions ask about frequency and duration of light- to moderate-intensity and vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activities, and frequency of
leisure-time strengthening activities. Questions are phrased in terms of current behavior and lack a specific reference period.
2
Inactive is participating in no leisure-time aerobic activity that lasted at least 10 minutes. Insufficiently active is participating in aerobic activities for 10 minutes or more but less than 150 minutes per week. Sufficiently active, which meets 2008 federal
physical activity guidelines, is participating in moderate-intensity leisure-time physical activity 150 minutes or more per week, or in vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activity 75 minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination.
3
Categories are mutually exclusive. Adults who met neither the aerobic nor muscle-strengthening 2008 federal physical activity guidelines may have engaged in lesser amounts of activity. Meeting only the strengthening guidelines means participating in
leisure-time muscle-strengthening activities 2 or more days per week with either no leisure-time aerobic activity or aerobic activity that did not meet the guidelines. Meeting only the aerobic activity guidelines means participating in moderate-intensity
leisure-time physical activities 150 minutes or more per week or vigorous-intensity activities 75 minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination, and not meeting the strengthening guidelines. Meeting both aerobic and strengthening guidelines is
defined in footnote 1. The sum of the percentages of adults who met the aerobic only guideline and the percentage who met both the aerobic and strengthening guidelines equals (within rounding error) the percentage of adults identified as sufficiently
active according to the 2008 federal guidelines for aerobic activity.
4
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
6
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
7
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups
shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons
of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness.
For example, the category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
8
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category Two or more races will be greater
than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
9
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race.
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over.
GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma.
12
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those
persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
10
11
13
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the
poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
14
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified
separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years
and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only
a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 (1844 years
and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
15
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table
XVII in Appendix III.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
1
Calculated from information that respondents supplied in response to survey questions regarding height and weight. For both men and women, underweight is indicated by body mass index (BMI)
under 18.5; healthy weight is indicated by BMI of 18.5 up to 25.0; overweight is indicated by BMI of 25.0 up to 30.0; and obesity is indicated by BMI of 30.0 or higher. Note that self-reported height and
weight may differ from actual measurements.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I), but they are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. Numbers may not add to totals
due to rounding.
3
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
4
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
1
Calculated from information that respondents supplied in response to survey questions regarding height and weight. For both men and women, underweight is indicated by body mass index (BMI)
under 18.5; healthy weight is indicated by BMI of 18.5 up to 25.0; overweight is indicated by BMI of 25.0 up to 30.0; and obesity is indicated by BMI of 30.0 or higher. Note that self-reported height and
weight may differ from actual measurements.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
5
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
8
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
9
11
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XVIII in Appendix III.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Quantity zero.
1
Based on a survey question that asked, Is there a place that you usually go to when you are sick or need advice about your health? and if there was at least one such place, a follow-up question
was asked: What kind of place [is it/do you go to most often]a clinic, a doctors office, an emergency room, or some other place? The choices for this second question are: clinic or health center,
doctors office or HMO, hospital emergency room, hospital outpatient department, some other place, or doesnt go to one place most often. For this table, hospital emergency room and
hospital outpatient department are combined, as are some other place and doesnt go to one place most often.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I) but they are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over and All persons with a usual place of
care columns. Numbers may not add to totals because of rounding.
4
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
12
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
13
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Quantity zero.
1
Based on a question in the survey that asked, Is there a place that you usually go to when you are sick or need advice about your health? and if there was at least one such place, a follow-up
question was asked: What kind of place [is it/do you go to most often]a clinic, a doctors office, an emergency room, or some other place? The choices for this second question are: clinic or health
center, doctors office or HMO, hospital emergency room, hospital outpatient department, some other place, or doesnt go to one place most often. For this table, hospital emergency room
and hospital outpatient department are combined, as are some other place and doesnt go to one place most often.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
5
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
6
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
4
7
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
8
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
9
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
10
GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma.

The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see
Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be
comparable with those from earlier years.
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
13
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for
persons under age 65 (1844 years and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).

MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XIX in Appendix III.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
1
Based on a survey question that asked respondents, During the past 12 months, how many times have you seen a doctor or other health care professional about your own health at a doctors office,
a clinic, or some other place? Respondents were instructed to exclude overnight hospitalizations, visits to hospital emergency rooms, home visits, dental visits, and telephone calls.
2
Unknowns for the column variables are not shown in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I). They are, however, included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column.
3
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. Additionally, numbers within
selected characteristics may not add to totals because of rounding.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
1
Based on a survey question that asked respondents, During the past 12 months, how many times have you seen a doctor or other health care professional about your own health at a doctors office,
a clinic, or some other place? Respondents were instructed to exclude overnight hospitalizations, visits to hospital emergency rooms, home visits, dental visits, and telephone calls.
2
Unknowns for the column variables are not included in the denominators when calculating percentages. Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. Additionally, percentages may not
add to totals because of rounding.
4
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
5
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
8
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
9
GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma.
10
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see
Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be
comparable with those from earlier years.
11
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XX in Appendix III.

Unknowns for column variables are not shown in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I). They are, however, included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. Additionally, numbers within
selected characteristics may not add to totals because of rounding.

In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.

Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Quantity zero.
1
Based on a survey question that asked respondents, About how long has it been since you saw or talked to a doctor or other health care professional about your own health? Contacts may include
office, hospital, or home visits, and phone calls (but not calls made for arranging appointments).
2
Unknowns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
5
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
9
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
12
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for
persons under age 65 (1844 years and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
13
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XXI in Appendix III.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
- Quantity zero.
1
Based on a survey question that asked respondents, About how long has it been since you last saw a dentist? Respondents were instructed to include all types of dentists, such as orthodontists,
oral surgeons, and all other dental specialists, as well as dental hygienists.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I), but they are included in the All persons aged 18 years and over column. Numbers may not add to totals
due to rounding.
3
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
4
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Quantity zero.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
1
Based on a question in the survey that asked respondents, About how long has it been since you last saw a dentist? Respondents were instructed to include all types of dentists, such as
orthodontists, oral surgeons, and all other dental specialists, as well as dental hygienists.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
5
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
9
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
12
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for
persons under age 65 (1844 years and 4564 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (6574 years and 75 years and over).
13
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XXII in Appendix III.

precision.
1
Based on a survey question that asked respondents, Have you ever been tested for HIV? Note that this question is different from the 1999 version, Have you ever had your blood tested for the
AIDS virus infection? HIV is human immunodeficiency virus. Any HIV test as part of a blood donation is not included.
2
Unknowns for the columns are not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I), but they are included in the All persons 18 years of age and over column. The numbers in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population.

Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.
5
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
8
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.

Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population using four age groups: 1844 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XXIII in Appendix III.
SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.
Age Adjustment
Unless otherwise specified,
percentages shown in Tables 141 were
age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S.
population as the standard population
provided by the U.S. Census Bureau
(17,18). Age adjustment was used to
allow comparison among various
population subgroups that have different
age structures. This is particularly
important for demographic
characteristics such as race and
ethnicity, education, and marital status.
It is also helpful for other
characteristics.
Age-adjusted rates are calculated by
the direct method as:
n
Est =
r p
i=1
i i
pi
i=1
Treatment of Unknown
Values
In the tables, all unknown values
(responses coded as refused, dont
know, or not ascertained) with
respect to each tables variables of
interest were removed from the
denominators when calculating row
percentages. In most instances, the
overall number of unknowns is quite
small and would not support
disaggregation by the demographic
characteristics included in the table.
Because these unknowns are not shown
separately, users calculating their own
percentages based on the frequencies
and population counts presented in the
tables may obtain slightly different
results. To aid understanding of the data,
weighted counts and percentages of
unknowns (with respect to the variables
of interest in each table) are shown in
Table II.
Unknowns with respect to the
demographic characteristics used in each
table are not shown due to small cell
counts. However, unknowns for both
family income and poverty status
typically include a sizable number of
persons regardless of the health outcome
shown in the table. Missing data on
family income and personal earnings in
NHIS have been imputed by NCHS
analysts using multiple-imputation
methodology. Five ASCII data sets
containing imputed values for the survey
year and additional information about
the imputed income files can be found

However, income and poverty estimates
in this publication are based on reported
income only and may differ from other
measures that are based on imputed data
(which were not available when this
report was prepared). Because it is
difficult to interpret the relationship
between unknown income (or poverty
status) and the health outcomes
displayed in the tables, counts of
persons in these unknown categories are
not shown in the tables. Table III shows
weighted counts (in thousands) and
weighted percentages of adults with
unknown values for poverty status and
family income, as well as for education,
health insurance, and marital status.
The Income and Assets section in
the Family Core of the NHIS instrument
allows respondents to report their family
income in several ways. Respondents
are first asked to provide their familys
total combined income before taxes
from all sources for the previous
calendar year in a dollar amount (from
$0 up to $999,995). Any family income
responses greater than $999,995 are
entered as $999,996. From 1997 through
2006, respondents who did not know or

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
In separate questions, respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had: hypertension (or high blood pressure), coronary heart disease,
angina (or angina pectoris), heart attack (or myocardial infarction), any other heart condition or disease not already mentioned, or a stroke. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
Includes coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, heart attack, or any other heart condition or disease.
Includes coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, or heart attack.
4
Persons had to have been told on two or more different visits that they had hypertension or high blood pressure to be classified as hypertensive.
5
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). The percentages in this table are rounded.
6
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
7
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix I), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
8
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
9
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
14
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix I).
15
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 2.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Quantity zero.
1
Respondents were asked in two separate questions if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had emphysema or asthma. Respondents who had been told they had
asthma were asked if they still had asthma. Respondents were asked in three separate questions if they had been told by a doctor or other health professional in the past 12 months that they had hay
fever, sinusitis, or bronchitis. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). The percentages in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 4.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
. . . Category not applicable.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.

Respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had a cancer or a malignancy of any kind. They were then asked to name the kind of cancer
they had. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Further, the denominators for calculating cervical cancer and prostate cancer
percentages are sex-specific, and the denominators for calculating breast cancer percentages encompass all adults. The percentages in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
4
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 6.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
In separate questions, respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had: an ulcer (including a stomach, duodenal, or peptic ulcer) or diabetes
(or sugar diabetes; female respondents were instructed to exclude pregnancy-related diabetes). Responses from persons who said they had borderline diabetes were treated as unknown with
respect to diabetes. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
In separate questions, respondents were asked if they had been told in the last 12 months by a doctor or other health professional that they had: weak or failing kidneys (excluding kidney stones,
bladder infections, or incontinence) or any kind of liver condition.
3
Respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had some form of arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, lupus, or fibromyalgia. Those who answered
yes were classified as having an arthritis diagnosis. Respondents were also asked: During the past 30 days, have you had pain, aching, or stiffness in or around a joint? (excluding back and neck)
and, if yes, Did your joint symptoms first begin more than 3 months ago? Respondents with symptoms that began more than 3 months ago were classified in this table as having chronic joint
symptoms.
4
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
6
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
7
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
8
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
9
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 2544 years, 4564 years, 6574 years, and 75
years and over.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
13
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
14
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 8.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
Respondents were asked, During the past three months, did you have a severe headache or migraine? Respondents were instructed to report pain that had lasted a whole day or more, and
conversely, not to report fleeting or minor aches or pains. A person may be represented in more than one column.
2
Respondents were asked, During the past three months, did you have neck pain? Respondents were instructed to report pain that had lasted a whole day or more, and conversely, not to report
fleeting or minor aches or pains. Persons may be represented in more than one column.
3
Respondents were asked, During the past three months, did you have low back pain? Respondents were instructed to report pain that had lasted a whole day or more, and conversely, not to report
fleeting or minor aches or pains. Persons may be represented in more than one column.
4
Respondents were asked, During the past three months, did you have facial ache or pain in the jaw muscles or the joint in front of the ear? Respondents were instructed to report pain that had
lasted a whole day or more, and conversely, not to report fleeting or minor aches or pains. Persons may be represented in more than one column.
5
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). The percentages in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
7
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category one race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
6
8
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
9
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
14
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
15
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 10.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
1
Respondents were asked, These next questions are about your hearing WITHOUT the use of hearing aids or other listening devices. Is your hearing excellent, good, [do you have] a little trouble
hearing, moderate trouble, a lot of trouble, or are you deaf? For this table, a little trouble hearing, moderate trouble, a lot of trouble, and deaf are combined into one category. Data analysts
should note that this question contains more response levels than the 2006 version, which had the following categories: good, a little trouble, a lot of trouble, and deaf. In 2006, hearing trouble
was defined by the following categories: a little trouble, a lot of trouble, and deaf. Estimates of hearing trouble for 2007 may not be comparable with earlier years. A person may be represented in
more than one column.
2
Regarding their vision, respondents were asked, Do you have any trouble seeing, even when wearing glasses or contact lenses? Respondents were also asked, Are you blind or unable to see at
all? For this table, any trouble seeing and blind are combined into one category. A person may be represented in more than one column.
3
Respondents were asked, Have you lost all of your upper and lower natural (permanent) teeth? A person may be represented in more than one column.
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). The percentages in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
6
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
7
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
8
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
13
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
14
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 12.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
Quantity zero.
1
In four separate questions, respondents were asked how often in the past 30 days they felt: so sad that nothing could cheer them up, hopeless, worthless, or that everything was an effort.
Respondents could choose from among five response categories: All of the time, Most of the time, Some of the time, A little of the time, or None of the time. For this table, All and Most
are combined, and Some is shown separately.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). The percentages in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 14.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.

In two separate questions, respondents were asked how often they felt nervous or restless in the past 30 days. Respondents could choose among five response categories: All of the time, Most of
the time, Some of the time, A little of the time, or None of the time. For this table, All and Most are combined, and Some is shown separately.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). The percentages in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 16.

1
In a series of separate questions, respondents were asked the degree of difficulty they experienced performing nine physical activities by themselves and without using any special equipment. The activities included walking a quarter of a mile (or three city
blocks); standing for 2 hours; stooping, bending, or kneeling; climbing 10 steps without resting; sitting for 2 hours; reaching over ones head; using ones fingers to grasp or handle small objects; lifting or carrying a 10-pound object (such as a full bag of
groceries); and pushing or pulling a large object (such as a living room chair). The response categories consisted of not at all difficult, only a little difficult, somewhat difficult, very difficult, cant do at all, or do not do this activity. For this table,
response categories very difficult and cant do at all are combined and shown in the columns.
2
Consists of a very difficult or cant do at all response to at least one of the nine physical activities shown in columns 311.
Percentages of persons reporting no difficulty in physical functioning, only a little or some difficulty, or that they do not do this activity, and those for whom the information is unknown (see Appendix I), are not shown separately. Persons who respond
do not do this activity are not included in the denominator when calculating percentages. Percentages in this table are rounded.
4
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
5
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups
shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons
of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness.
For example, the category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
6
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category Two or more races will be greater than
the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race.
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over.
GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma.
10
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those
persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
11
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the
poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
12
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified
separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years
and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only
a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).

MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
1
Based on a survey question that asked respondents, Would you say [subject names] health in general was excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor? This information was obtained during a part of
the interview that allowed proxy responses, such that a knowledgeable adult family member could respond on behalf of adults not taking part in the interview; however, the sample in this table is based
on the reported health status (possibly by proxy) for the Sample Adult only. Excellent and very good are combined in this table, as are fair and poor.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
9
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see
Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be
comparable with those from earlier years.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 21.

Based on a survey question that asked respondents, Would you say [subject names] health in general is excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor? Proxy responses were allowed for adults not taking part in this portion of the interview; however, the
sample in this table is based on the reported health status (possibly by proxy) for the Sample Adult only. Excellent and very good are combined in this table, as are fair and poor. All sample adult respondents were also asked, Compared with twelve
months ago, would you say your health is better, worse, or about the same?
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups
shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons
of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness.
For example, the category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category Two or more races will be greater
than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race.
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over.
8
GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma.
9
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those
persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
7
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the
poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
11
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified
separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years
and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only
a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
12
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 23.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
1
Based on two survey questions: Have you smoked at least 100 cigarettes in your entire life? and Do you now smoke cigarettes every day, some days, or not at all?
Current smokers have smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime and still currently smoke; every day smokers are current smokers who smoke every day; and some day smokers are current
smokers who smoke on some days.
2
Persons who have smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime but currently do not smoke at all.
Persons who have never smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime.
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
6
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
7
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
8
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
9
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
13
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 25.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
1
Derived from several source questions: In ANY ONE YEAR, have you had at least 12 drinks of any type of alcoholic beverage?; In your ENTIRE LIFE, have you had at least 12 drinks of any type
of alcoholic beverage?; and In the PAST YEAR, how often did you drink any type of alcoholic beverage?
2
Categories are based on the same definitions used in the Health, United States publications (see Appendix II) and are derived from respondents self-reported responses to a series of questions
about alcohol consumption. A lifetime abstainer had fewer than 12 drinks in his or her lifetime; a former drinker had at least 12 drinks in his or her lifetime or in any 1 year AND had no drink in the past
year; and a current drinker had at least 12 drinks in his or her lifetime or in any 1 year AND had a drink 1365 times in the past year.
3
Former infrequent drinkers had at least 12 drinks in their lifetime but fewer than 12 drinks in any 1 year and no drinks in the last year. Former regular drinkers had at least 12 drinks in any 1 year and
no drinks in the last year. Current infrequent drinkers had at least 12 drinks in their lifetime and fewer than 12 drinks in the past year, and current regular drinkers had at least 12 drinks in the past
year. Former and current drinkers for whom the frequency of consumption or amount consumed was unknown are not included.
4
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
6
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
7
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
8
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
13
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
14
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 27.

Starting with Summary Health Statistics for U.S. Adults: National Health Interview Survey, 2010, measures of physical activity shown are changed to reflect the federal 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans (available from: http://
www.health.gov/PAGuidelines/). This new table shows both percentages of adults who met the guidelines aerobic component and percentages of adults who met the full physical activity guidelines, including strengthening as well as aerobic activities. The
2008 federal guidelines recommend that for substantial health benefits, adults should perform at least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) a week of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes (1 hour and 15 minutes) a week of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical
activity, or an equivalent combination. Aerobic activity should be performed in episodes of at least 10 minutes that are preferably spread throughout the week. The guidelines also recommend that adults perform muscle-strengthening activities of moderate or
high intensity involving all major muscle groups on 2 or more days a week for additional health benefits. NHIS questions ask about frequency and duration of light- to moderate-intensity and vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activities, and frequency of
leisure-time strengthening activities. Questions are phrased in terms of current behavior and lack a specific reference period.
2
Inactive is participating in no leisure-time aerobic activity that lasted at least 10 minutes. Insufficiently active is participating in aerobic activities for 10 minutes or more but less than 150 minutes per week. Sufficiently active, which meets the 2008
federal physical activity guidelines, is participating in moderate-intensity leisure-time physical activity 150 minutes or more per week, or in vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activity 75 minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination.
3
Categories are mutually exclusive. Adults who met neither the aerobic nor muscle-strengthening 2008 federal physical activity guidelines may have engaged in lesser amounts of activity. Meeting only the strengthening guidelines means participating in
leisure-time muscle-strengthening activities 2 or more days per week with either no leisure-time aerobic activity or aerobic activity that did not meet the guidelines. Meeting only the aerobic activity guidelines means participating in moderate-intensity
leisure-time physical activities 150 minutes or more per week or in vigorous-intensity activities 75 minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination, and not meeting the strengthening guidelines. Meeting both aerobic and strengthening guidelines is
defined in footnote 1. The sum of percentages of adults who met the aerobic-only guidelines and of those who met both the aerobic and strengthening guidelines equals (within rounding error) the percentage of adults identified as sufficiently active
according to the 2008 federal guidelines for aerobic activity.
4
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
6
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups
shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons
of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness.
For example, the category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
7
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category Two or more races will be greater
than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
8
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race.
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over.
10
GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma.
11
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those
persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
9
12
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the
poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
13
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified
separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years
and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only
a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
14
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
1
Calculated from information that respondents supplied in response to survey questions regarding height and weight. For both men and women, underweight is indicated by a body mass index (BMI)
under 18.5; healthy weight is indicated by BMI of 18.5 up to 25.0; overweight is indicated by BMI of 25.0 up to 30.0; and obesity is indicated by BMI of 30.0 or higher. Note that self-reported height and
weight may differ from actual measurements.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 31.

Based on a survey question that asked, Is there a place that you usually go to when you are sick or need advice about your health? and if there was at least one such place, then a follow-up
question was asked: What kind of place [is it/do you go to most often]a clinic, a doctors office, an emergency room, or some other place? The choices for this second question are: clinic or health
center, doctors office or HMO, hospital emergency room, hospital outpatient department, some other place, or doesnt go to one place most often. For this table, hospital emergency room
and hospital outpatient department are combined, as are some other place and doesnt go to one place most often.

Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
7
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
12
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
13
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 33.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
1
Based on a survey question that asked respondents, During the past 12 months, how many times have you seen a doctor or other health care professional about your own health at a doctors office,
a clinic, or some other place? Respondents were instructed to exclude overnight hospitalizations, visits to hospital emergency rooms, home visits, dental visits, and telephone calls.
2
Unknowns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). The numbers in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 35.

Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Quantity zero.
1
Based on a survey question that asked respondents, About how long has it been since you saw or talked to a doctor or other health care professional about your own health? Contacts may include
office, hospital, or home visits, and phone calls (but not calls made for arranging appointments).
2
Unknowns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
11
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
12
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 37.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or
precision.
Quantity zero.
Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown.
1
Based on a survey question that asked respondents, About how long has it been since you last saw a dentist? Respondents were instructed to include all types of dentists, such as orthodontists,
oral surgeons, and all other dental specialists, as well as dental hygienists.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
4
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.
Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the
category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
3
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
6
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
11
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).
12
MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 39.

Based on a survey question that asked respondents, Have you ever been tested for HIV? Note that this question is different from the 1999 version, Have you ever had your blood tested for the
AIDS virus infection? HIV is human immunodeficiency virus. Any HIV test as part of a blood donation is not included.
2
Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). The numbers in this table are rounded.
Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.
In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category One race refers to persons who indicated only a single race
group.Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for One race but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for
the category One race will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races.The
tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the
category One race, Black or African American in the tables is referred to as black persons in the text.
5
Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group.Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies
for the category Two or more races will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately.
3
4
Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category Not Hispanic or Latino refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin,
regardless of race.
Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over.
8
GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma.
9
The categories Less than $35,000 and $35,000 or more include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see
Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be
comparable with those from earlier years.
10
Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureaus poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. Poor persons are defined as below the poverty threshold.Near poor
persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. Not poor persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income
questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.
11
Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65
years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category Private includes persons who had any type
of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, Private includes persons with only private coverage or private in
combination with Medicare coverage. The category Uninsured includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that
paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).

MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. Not in MSA consists of persons not living in
a metropolitan statistical area.
NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 41.
