Map Details – Montana Stroke Mortality Rates by County
Impact Statement
This map illustrates Montana’s age-adjusted stroke mortality rates over a 7-year time-period (2000-2006). It is apparent, from the map, that many counties (especially in central and southeast Montana) had less than 20 stroke deaths, and county level data had to be suppressed. It appears that certain areas, which cover several adjacent counties, have high stroke mortality rates.
