title: Health Characteristics by Geographic Region, large Metropolitan Areas, and Other Places of Residence, United States - 1969-70.
abstract: The estimates for selected health characteristics presented in this report are based on Health Interview Survey data collected during 1969-70. The health characteristics discussed include activity limitation due to chronic disease, disability days, incidence of acute conditions and persons injured, hospitalization, and physician and dental visits. The information is shown by the four geographic regions, metropolitan areas, and farm and nonfarm places of residence outside the metropolitan areas. Another breakdown of the data shows estimates by residence inside or outside the metropolitan area. An earlier report (Vital and Health Statistics Series 10, No. 36) contained similar information for the period July 1963-June 1965.
