Definitions: Number of live births by county of births.

The 2003 U.S. Standard Certificate of Live Birth, which was implemented in North Carolina during 2010, captures prenatal care and education data in a manner that differs from the prior certificate. Due to data compatibility issues that information will not be available for 2010. Prenatal care and education data for 2011 should not be compared to prior years (2001-2009).

Data Source: North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services, State Center for Health Statistics. "Birth Data." Available online at: http://www.schs.state.nc.us/schs/data/query.html.

Footnotes: Last updated March 2013.

Note: Maps use the natural break classification method, which reflects patterns in the data by dividing the map into naturally occurring groups. Using statistical tools, this method determines cut-off points for each group by identifying large gaps in data values.
