HEALTH SURVEILLANCE DATA BOOK
SECTION 1 - DEMOGRAPHICS
Kalamazoo County demographics are presented in this section. Demographics are the statistical data of a population. Age, income, education, sex and race are all examples of demographic characteristics. This information can be used for health service planning and to help understand the health status of a population. It is also important to look at health outcomes, risk factors and resources by demographic characteristics to determine if there are disparities (differences) among groups in the population.
