This layer displays cancer screening and risk factor information from the State Cancer Profiles data – a collaboration between the Center For Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and National Cancer Institute (NCI). County level model-based estimates are calculated by combining responses from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) and the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS), and uses the U. S. Census Small Area Estimates (SAE) methodology to estimate data for non-response areas. Low (-95%) and High (+95%) confidence intervals are also included in the popup. The width of a confidence interval depends on the amount of variability in the data. Narrow confidence intervals tend to imply greater certainty in the estimate, while wide confidence intervals tend to imply more variability in the data and could mean there is less certainty. For more information visit the State Cancer Profiles Methodology Page.

This layer displays the FEMA National Risk Index score, rating and national and state percentiles for each county and Census tract. These are measures of risks U.S. communities are exposed to for 18 natural hazards. Data was obtained from the FEMA National Risk Index (the Nov. 2021 version).

Layer displays the modeled non-cancer risk associated with air toxics exposure. A hazard index (HI) of 1 or lower means air toxics are unlikely to cause adverse noncancer health effects over a lifetime of exposure.

This layer displays RSEI score by county. A RSEI Score is a unitless value that accounts for the size of the chemical release, the fate and transport of the chemical through the environment, the size and location of the exposed population, and the chemical’s toxicity. RSEI scores are designed to be compared to each other. A RSEI Score 10 times higher than another RSEI Score suggests that the potential for risk is 10 times higher. Relatively small releases may lead to high RSEI Scores if the toxicity weight is particularly high or if the estimated exposed population is large. Conversely, large releases may lead to low RSEI Scores if the toxicity weight is low or if the estimated exposed population is small. A low RSEI Score indicates low potential concern from reported TRI releases, but other kinds of environmental risk may also be present, including pollution from mobile sources like cars and trucks, hazardous waste, and unreported releases from facilities.
