Data Provided:

Dataset	Vital Statistics
Precision	Address level data has been aggregated to Census Tracts, Zipcodes (2009 definitions), cities and county level.
Currency	Data are typically grouped into multiple year ranges to provide statistical reliability and to protect confidentiality. Most indicators are for 2006-2008.
Limitations	Any geographical area with a count of less than 20 cases has been masked to protect individuals. As a result, aggregating all census tracts in the county/city will yield a different total count than the official values for those larger areas. Use the most appropriate level of geography and avoid aggregating where possible.
Contact	Contact the senior epidemiologist or the director at ACPHD CAPE.
Updates	These vital stats data will be updated on a yearly basis.
