The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment has developed community level estimates for the number of adults ever diagnosed with Diabetes (excluding gestational, borderline, or pre-diabetes) for each census tract in Colorado based on modeled survey data collected in the Colorado Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System and population, race, gender, and age estimates for each census tract from the American Community Survey. For additional information pertaining to the data and methodology, please visit the CDPHE Community Level Estimates home page.The estimate for each census tract represents an average that was derived using multiple years of BRFSS survey responses (2013-2016) and American Community Survey population & demographic estimates.CDPHE used a model-based approach to measure the relationship between age, race, gender, poverty, education, location and existing Diabetes data from the Colorado BRFSS survey, and applied this relationship to predict the number of persons' who have Diabetes for each census tract in Colorado. These probabilities are based on demographic stratification to American Community Survey population estimates (2011-2015) for each census tract in Colorado. The model ultimately determines (or predicts) an estimate representing the percentage of adults who have Diabetes for each census tract in Colorado. These estimates do not represent direct survey estimates.
These estimates do not represent the known prevalence of adults with Diabetes for individual neighborhoods or census tracts.The estimates provided in the data tables and maps within this application are for informational purposes and there are no restrictions for using or disseminating this data set.Users of the data should consider factors such as the data source, time period, assignment of geography, statistical reliability, and calculation of rate.The State of Colorado and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment assumes no liability to the completeness, correctness, or fitness for use of this data set.Please contact the Health Statistics Section at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment for more information on how these data were assembled, consultation on using this data set, or to request additional access to this data.The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment does not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of data from external sources.
