Introduction
|
|
Information about a county's population is crucial to understanding its health status, and a wide range of demographic data is available at
the ZIP code level through IPODR. Utilizing ZIP code-level data, users can locate neighborhoods or communities in their county with high
levels of poor outcomes or suboptimal service utilization, compare small geographic areas within the county, plan and evaluate services for
neighborhoods, or compare the occurrence of health outcomes with neighboring counties or the state overall.

Definitions
|
|
Birth
|
|
For IPODR, a birth is included only if it is a live birth. Fetal deaths are not included in any IPODR tables or maps, except for those in
the mortality section. Note that the IPODR definition of birth (and the treatment of fetal deaths) was changed starting in May 2009.
See recent changes to IPODR for more information.
|
|
California Resident
|
|
IPODR only includes information on California resident births. These are births to a mother who lists
California as their current home address on the birth certificate. Note that the birth itself may have occured
outside of California. A father may have a home address outside California.
|
| Race/ethnicity is defined as follows: |
|
| Hispanic |
|
All persons identifying themselves as of Hispanic ethnicity. |
| Non-Hispanic White |
|
All persons identifying themselves as White, but not as Hispanic. |
| Black |
|
All persons identifying themselves as Black, but not as Hispanic. |
| Asian/Pacific Islander |
|
All persons identifying themselves as Asian or Pacific Islander, but not as Hispanic. |
| Other |
|
All persons not identifying themselves as one of the categories above including Native American, Alaskan, Aleutian, 2 or more races, unknown and other race, but not as Hispanic. |
|
|
|
Mexico-born mothers are determined from the "birthplace of mother." This refers to foreign born mothers, specifically from Mexico.
