Modifiable Risk Factors for Chronic Diseases and Other Leading Causes of Death

About this dataset
This dataset contains data on behaviors that are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) from 2011 to present. It is one of many datasets included in the National Cardiovascular Disease Surveillance System, which offers comprehensive insights into the public health burden of CVDs in America. This dataset collects information on modifiable risk factors for chronic diseases and leading causes of death from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS). This includes indicators from CDC's Division for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention, organized by location and indicator with stratifications based on age, sex and race/ethnicity. In providing a detailed picture of these conditions, the system can be effectively used to reduce preventative disease through education, policy changes and other interventions
