Data from statecancerprofiles.cancer.gov.
State Cancer Registries may provide more current or more local data.

* Data has been suppressed to ensure confidentiality and stability of rate estimates. Counts for both sexes are suppressed if fewer than 16 cases were reported in a specific area-sex-race category.
** Data not available because of state legislation and regulations which prohibit the release of county level data to outside entities.
*** Data not provided because it did not meet USCS data quality standards for one or more years during the rate period of data collection. While 84% of the US population resided in geographic areas with population-based cancer registries meeting the registry eligibility criteria for 2000, 16% of the US population was not yet represented in the United States Cancer Statistics. American Cancer Society's Facts & Figures provides estimates of numbers of new cancer cases and deaths.
**** Data does not include cases diagnosed in other states because data exchange agreements prohibit the release of data to third parties.
