Public Health Indicators in Chicago

Natality, Mortality, Infectious Disease, Lead Poisoning and Economic Status

By City of Chicago [source]

About this dataset

This public health dataset contains a comprehensive selection of indicators related to natality, mortality, infectious disease, lead poisoning, and economic status from Chicago community areas. It is an invaluable resource for those interested in understanding the current state of public health within each area in order to identify any deficiencies or areas of improvement needed.

The data includes 27 indicators such as birth and death rates, prenatal care beginning in first trimester percentages, preterm birth rates, breast cancer incidences per hundred thousand female population, all-sites cancer rates per hundred thousand population and more. For each indicator provided it details the geographical region so that analyses can be made regarding trends on a local level. Furthermore this dataset allows various stakeholders to measure performance along these indicators or even compare different community areas side-by-side.

This dataset provides a valuable tool for those striving toward better public health outcomes for the citizens of Chicago's communities by allowing greater insight into trends specific to geographic regions that could potentially lead to further research and implementation practices based on empirical evidence gathered from this comprehensive yet digestible selection of indicators

Selected variables from the most recent 5 year ACS Community Survey (Released 2023) aggregated by Ward. Additional years will be added as they become available.

The underlying algorithm to create the dataset calculates the percent of a census tract that falls within the boundaries of a given ward. Given that census tracts and ward boundaries are not aligned, these figures should be considered an estimate.

There are different approaches in common use for displaying Hispanic or Latino population counts. In this dataset, following the approach taken by the Census Bureau, a person who identifies as Hispanic or Latino will also be counted in the race category with which they identify. However, again following the Census Bureau data, there is also a column for White Not Hispanic or Latino.

The City of Chicago is actively soliciting community input on how best to represent race, ethnicity, and related concepts in its data and policy.
