2011 to 2012. BRFSS SMART County Prevalence combined land line and cell phone data. The Selected Metropolitan Area Risk Trends (SMART) project uses the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) to analyze the data of selected counties with 500 or more respondents. BRFSS data can be used to identify emerging health problems, establish and track health objectives, and develop and evaluate public health policies and programs. BRFSS is a continuous, state-based surveillance system that collects information about modifiable risk factors for chronic diseases and other leading causes of death. Data will be updated annually as it becomes available. Detailed information on sampling methodology and quality assurance can be found on the BRFSS website (http://www.cdc.gov/brfss).

Users can gather information regarding health risk behaviors and health conditions. Examples of topics include: physical activity, sexual behaviors, health insurance coverage, and chronic diseases. Background The Center for Disease Control and Prevention's Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) is a state-based system of health surveys and is the largest telephone health survey (almost 350,000 adults are interviewed each year). State-specific/ representative information on health risk behaviors, preventive health practices, and access to care is collected. The BRFSS helps state officials gather information related to behaviors linked to the leading causes of death - heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes and injury. Information regarding preventive care like screening tests, seatbelt use, tobacco use, and physical activity is also ascertained. User Functionality Users can access BRFSS data as: Prevalence and Trend Data; SMART City and County Data; BRFSS Maps; Chronic Disease Indicators (CDI); and through WEAT. Data is presented in tables, graphs or maps, and users can compare across states or between years. Answers to the survey questions, data tables, and the full data sets are available for download into Excel files or can be printed directly from the site. Users can view data by age, race, gender, income or education, and it is often available on a national level, state, territory, county or city level. WEAT (Web Enabled Analysis Tool) allows users to analyze BRFSS data using logistic regression and to create cross tabulation tables. However, as of the date of this abstract, only 2005 data is available for use with WEAT. Data Notes BRFSS started in 1984. Data is collected continuously in all 50 states, U.S. Virgin Islands, D.C., Guam and Puerto Rice and is released annually. The most recent data is from 2009

This data package contains information about a list of Behavioral Risk Factor Health and Diseases Surveillance System over health-related quality of life, healthy aging data and the information regarding the Selected Metropolitan Area Risk Trends (SMART) project and Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) responses as to the access healthcare from 1995-2011.

This map shows where obesity and diabetes are happening in the US, by county. It shows each component of the map as its own layer, and also shows the patterns overlapping. Diabetes prevalence (% of adults)Obesity prevalence (% of adults)This data can be used to assess the health factors, and answer questions such as:Are certain counties more/less at risk in regards to diabetes and obesity?Are diabetes, obesity, and physical inactivity happening within the same areas of the US?According to the CDC: "These data can help the public to better use existing resources for diabetes management and prevention efforts." The data comes from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the data vintage is 2013.
