The United States Cancer Statistics (USCS) online databases in WONDER provide cancer incidence and mortality data for the United States for the years since 1999, by year, state and metropolitan areas (MSA), age group, race, ethnicity, sex, childhood cancer classifications and cancer site. Report case counts, deaths, crude and age-adjusted incidence and death rates, and 95% confidence intervals for rates. The USCS data are the official federal statistics on cancer incidence from registries having high-quality data and cancer mortality statistics for 50 states and the District of Columbia. USCS are produced by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Cancer Institute (NCI), in collaboration with the North American Association of Central Cancer Registries (NAACCR). Mortality data are provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), National Vital Statistics System (NVSS).

About this dataset

In the following maps, the U.S. states are divided into groups based on the rates at which people developed or died from cancer in 2013, the most recent year for which incidence data are available.

The rates are the numbers out of 100,000 people who developed or died from cancer each year.

Incidence Rates by State
The number of people who get cancer is called cancer incidence. In the United States, the rate of getting cancer varies from state to state.

• *Rates are per 100,000 and are age-adjusted to the 2000 U.S. standard population.

• ‡Rates are not shown if the state did not meet USCS publication criteria or if the state did not submit data to CDC.

Death Rates by State
Rates of dying from cancer also vary from state to state.

• *Rates are per 100,000 and are age-adjusted to the 2000 U.S. standard population.

PLACES (Population Level Analysis and Community Estimates) is an expansion of the original 500 Cities project and is a collaboration between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF), and the CDC Foundation (CDCF). This service includes 29 measures for chronic disease related health outcomes (13), prevention measures (9), health risk behaviors (4), and health status (3). Data were provided by CDC Division of Population Health, Epidemiology and Surveillance Branch. Data sources used to generate these measures include BRFSS data (2020 or 2019), Census Bureau 2010 census population data or annual population estimates for county vintage 2020 or 2019, and American Community Survey (ACS) 2015-2019 estimates.The health outcomes include arthritis, current asthma, high blood pressure, cancer (excluding skin cancer), high cholesterol, chronic kidney disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), coronary heart disease, diagnosed diabetes, depression, obesity, all teeth lost, and stroke.The prevention measures include lack of health insurance, visits to doctor for routine checkup, visits to dentist, taking medicine for high blood pressure control, cholesterol screening, mammography use for women, cervical cancer screening for women, colon cancer screening, and core preventive services use for older adults (men and women).The health risk behaviors include binge drinking, current smoking, physical inactivity, and sleeping less than 7 hours.The health status measures include mental health not good for ≥14 days, physical health not good for ≥14 days, and fair or poor health. For more information, please visit https://www.cdc.gov/places or contact places@cdc.gov.

The PLACES (Population Level Analysis and Community Estimates) is an expansion of the original 500 Cities project and is a collaboration between the CDC, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF), and the CDC Foundation (CDCF). The original 500 Cities Project provided city- and census tract-level estimates for chronic disease risk factors (5), health outcomes (13), and clinical preventive services use (9) for the 500 largest US cities. The PLACES Project extends these estimates to all counties, places (incorporated and census designated places), census tracts and ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTA) across the United States. Data were provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Division of Population Health, Epidemiology and Surveillance Branch. Data sources used to generate these measures include BRFSS data (2018 or 2017), Census Bureau 2010 census population data or annual population estimates for county vintage 2018 or 2017, and American Community Survey (ACS) 2014-2018 or 2013-2017 estimates.The health outcomes include arthritis, current asthma, high blood pressure, cancer (excluding skin cancer), high cholesterol, chronic kidney disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), coronary heart disease, diagnosed diabetes, mental health not good for >=14 days, physical health not good for >=14 days, all teeth lost and stroke.The preventive services uses include lack of health insurance, visits to doctor for routine checkup, visits to dentist, taking medicine for high blood pressure control, cholesterol screening, mammography use for women, cervical cancer screening for women, colon cancer screening, and core preventive services use for older adults (men and women).The unhealthy behaviors include binge drinking, current smoking, obesity, physical inactivity, and sleeping less than 7 hours.For more information about the methodology, visit https://www.cdc.gov/places or contact places@cdc.gov.CDC's source webpage.CDC's feature service.

This dataset contains model-based ZIP Code Tabulation Area (ZCTA) level estimates. PLACES covers the entire United States—50 states and the District of Columbia—at county, place, census tract, and ZIP Code Tabulation Area levels. It provides information uniformly on this large scale for local areas at four geographic levels. Estimates were provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Division of Population Health, Epidemiology and Surveillance Branch. PLACES was funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in conjunction with the CDC Foundation. The dataset includes estimates for 36 measures: 13 for health outcomes, 9 for preventive services use, 4 for chronic disease-related health risk behaviors, 7 for disabilities, and 3 for health status. These estimates can be used to identify emerging health problems and to help develop and carry out effective, targeted public health prevention activities. Because the small area model cannot detect effects due to local interventions, users are cautioned against using these estimates for program or policy evaluations. Data sources used to generate these model-based estimates are Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) 2021 or 2020 data, Census Bureau 2010 population data, and American Community Survey 2015–2019 estimates. The 2023 release uses 2021 BRFSS data for 29 measures and 2020 BRFSS data for 7 measures (all teeth lost, dental visits, mammograms, cervical cancer screening, colorectal cancer screening, core preventive services among older adults, and sleeping less than 7 hours) that the survey collects data on every other year. More information about the methodology can be found at www.cdc.gov/places.

It provides model-based estimates of colorectal cancer screening prevalence among adults aged 50-75 years at county, place, census tract and ZCTA levels in the United States. PLACES is an expansion of the original 500 Cities Project and a collaboration between the CDC, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and the CDC Foundation. Data sources used to generate these estimates include the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), Census 2020 population counts or Census annual county-level population estimates, and the American Community Survey (ACS) estimates.
