Conducted by the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO), the purpose of this survey of local health departments (LHDs) was to advance and support the development of a database for LHDs to describe and understand their structure, function, and capacities. A core set of questions was submitted to every LHD. In addition, some LHDs received one of two randomly assigned modules of supplemental questions. The core questions covered governance, funding, workforce (staffing levels, occupations employed, top executive education and licensure, and percentages of staff by race and Hispanic origin), LHD activities, and community health assessment and health improvement planning. The surveyed LHD activities include immunization, screening for diseases and conditions, treatment for communicable diseases, maternal and child health, epidemiology and surveillance activities, population-based primary prevention activities, and regulation, inspection and/or licensing activities. Topics covered by Module 1 included quality improvement, familiarity with a voluntary national accreditation program for state and local health departments, sharing of resources with other LHDs, emergency preparedness, and information technology. Module 2 examined human resources, policy-making and advocacy, access to health care services, practice-based research, health impact assessments, public health and law, and use of public health reports.

Conducted by the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO), the purpose of this survey of local health departments (LHDs) was to advance and support the development of a database for LHDs to describe and understand their structure, function, and capacities. A core set of questions was submitted to every LHD. In addition, some LHDs received one of two randomly assigned modules of supplemental questions. Data from the National Profile of Local Health Departments survey are used by: LHD staff members to compare their LHD or those within their states to others nationwide; Policymakers at the local, state, and federal levels to inform public health policy and support projects to improve local public health practice; Universities to educate future public health workforce members about LHDs; Researchers to address questions about public health practice; andNACCHO staff to develop programs and resources that meet the needs of LHDs and to advocate effectively for LHDs. Data included as part of this collection includes the Restricted-Use (Restricted-Use Level 2) data of the National Profile of Local Health Departments 2016 study. The dataset includes 1930 cases for 1116 variables.

This dataset provides locations and related information for Local Health Department as of 11.30.2024 based on information provided by the IDOH Local Health Department Outreach. Local health departments provide essential health services to protect the public’s health such as environmental health services, food protection, emergency preparedness, preventative and primary care, immunizations, training and education, and others per statute or local government mandates.

This dataset comes from the Community Survey questions relating to the Community Health & Well-Being performance measure: "With “10” representing the best possible life for you and “0” representing the worst, how would you say you personally feel you stand at this time?" and "With “10” representing the best possible life for you and “0” representing the worst, how do you think you will stand about five years from now?" – the results of both scores are then used to assess a Cantril Scale which is a way of assessing general life satisfaction. As per the Cantril Self-Anchoring Striving Scale, the three categories of identification are as follows: Thriving – Respondents rate their current life as a 7 or higher AND their future life as an 8 or higher. Suffering – Respondents rate their current life negatively (0 to 4) AND their future life negatively (0 to 4). Struggling – Respondents who do not meet the criteria for Thriving or Suffering. The survey is mailed to a random sample of households in the City of Tempe and has a 95% confidence level. Note on Methodology Update: In 2025, the Cantril classification method was revised to align with Gallup’s official Life Evaluation Index methodology. This change affects only a small number of respondents whose answers did not fit cleanly into the previous custom definition of “Struggling,” which classified respondents who rated their current life moderately (5 or 6) or their future life moderately or negatively (0 to 7). Under the updated approach, respondents who previously fell outside that definition are now appropriately included in the Struggling category. The overall distribution of Thriving, Struggling, and Suffering changed only minimally, and the updated methodology has been applied consistently to all prior years.This page provides data for the Community Health and Well-Being performance measure.The performance measure dashboard is available at 3.34 Community Health and Well-Being.Data Dictionary Additional InformationSource: Community Attitude Survey (Vendor: ETC Institute)Contact: Amber AsburryContact email: amber_asburry@tempe.govPreparation Method: Survey results from two questions are calculated to create a Cantril Scale value that falls into the categories of Thriving, Struggling, and Suffering.Publish Frequency: AnnuallyPublish Method: Manual

County Health Status Profiles is an annually published report for the State of California by the California Department of Public Health in collaboration with the California Conference of Local Health Officers. Health indicators are measured for 58 counties and California statewide that can be directly compared to national standards and populations of similar composition. Where available, the measurements are ranked and compared with target rates established for Healthy People National Objectives.

For tables where the health indicator denominator and numerator are derived from the same data source, the denominator excludes records for which the health indicator data is missing and unable to be imputed.

For more information see the County Health Status Profiles report.

This dataset contains model-based census tract 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 40 measures: 12 for health outcomes, 7 for preventive services use, 4 for chronic disease-related health risk behaviors, 7 for disabilities, 3 for health status, and 7 for health-related social needs. 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) 2022 or 2021 data, Census Bureau 2020 population data, and American Community Survey 2018–2022 estimates. The 2024 release uses 2022 BRFSS data for 36 measures and 2021 BRFSS data for 4 measures (high blood pressure, high cholesterol, cholesterol screening, and taking medicine for high blood pressure control among those with high blood pressure) that the survey collects data on every other year. More information about the methodology can be found at www.cdc.gov/places.
