Definitions: Infant mortality is defined as a death of a liveborn child under one year of age. The infant mortality rate is the number of infant deaths per 1,000 live births.

Data Source: NC Department of Health and Human Services, State Center for Health Statistics. "North Carolina Infant Mortality Rate." Available online at: http://www.schs.state.nc.us/SCHS/data/county.cfm.

Footnotes: Rates based on less than 10 deaths are considered unreliable and should be interpreted with caution. Updated July 2012.

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.
