How to Make a Map of Risk Factors, Social and Economic Data, Health Care Delivery and Insurance
Step 1
First, launch the Atlas map from the Interactive Atlas Home page.
Then, select the Map Area. Maps can be viewed in three ways, depending on your geographic area of interest:
- A map of the entire United States with state-level data (US Map—State Level).
- A map of the entire United States with county-level data (US Map—County Level).
- A map of a single state with county-level data.

Step 2
Choose your topic of interest and expand that section in the left navigation bar. Data are available at the following geographies.
Geography | |||
---|---|---|---|
Topic | State | County | Census Tract |
Heart Disease and Stroke Data | X | X | |
Risk Factors | X | ||
Social and Economic Data | X | X | |
Health Care Delivery and Insurance | X |
Step 3
Expand the selection and choose the topic to display.
Social and Economic Data: To view census tract-level data, make sure you have selected a state from the drop down box in “Select Map Area,” (at the top of the left navigation bar) then check the “Show Census Tracts” box.
For all other data: County-level data can be viewed as either a map of the entire United States with county-level data (US Map—County Level) or a map of a single state with county-level data.
