Public Health: Causes Of Death

This dataset is sourced from the Illinois Department of Public Health and curated by the Cook County Department of Public Health. It covers a select set of causes of death across the County (excluding Chicago). To maintain confidentiality of individual medical records, counts below 5 and rates below 20 are masked with an asterisk (*). Please review metadata and values carefully and exercise caution when aggregating. Some columns only contain data across certain age groups. Some rows overlap across variables and geographic levels and aggregating without filtering may overestimate the counts. For example, aggregating counts across Place without excluding pre-aggregated counts for "Aggregated Region: Suburban Cook County" and "Aggregated Region: CCDPH Jurisdiction" will overstate the counts. Data prior to 2015 can be found here: Suburban Cook County Deaths (2000-2014).
