Health Insurance, State & Counties Only (Archives, 2010-2020)
Database Detail
| Name | Health Insurance, State & Counties Only (Archives, 2010-2020) |
| Summary | Health insurance in US, states, counties by demographic, other characteristics |
| Additional Background |
This database contains health insurance coverage for the U.S., states, and roughly 900 counties. (Areas with less than 65,000 population are excluded.) Coverage and non-coverage is broken down by age, gender, race/ethnicity, households, nativity/citizenship, disability, educational attainment, employment, work experience, household income, and poverty status. Data are collected through the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey 1-Year Estimates. Additional information on that survey is available from the U.S. Bureau of the Census.
2020 data provided by the Census Bureau is extremely limited. Data rely on ACS 1-year experimental tables, which use an experimental estimation methodology and should not be compared with other ACS data. The Census Bureau urges data users to exercise caution when using the 2020 experimental data and to determine whether the data are suitable for their particular use. Refer to the page American Community Survey Experimental Data (census.gov) for more information about the experimental estimation methodology.
According to the Census Bureau, values reported are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty is represented through the use of a Margin Of Error (MOE) of 90 percent. This can be interpreted as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value.
Identified counties reflect July 2015 Office of Management and Budget (OMB) delineations of metropolitan and micropolitan statistical areas. However, in certain instances the names and boundaries may differ from the OMB delineations due to changes over time.
The Census Bureau establishes the poverty level based on a set of money income thresholds that vary by family size and composition to determine who is in poverty. If a family's total income is less than the family's threshold, then that family and every individual in it is considered in poverty. The official poverty thresholds do not vary geographically, but they are updated for inflation using the Consumer Price Index (CPI-U). The official poverty definition uses money income before taxes and does not include capital gains or noncash benefits (such as public housing, Medicaid, and food stamps).

APA
Format or style, from the American Psychological Association, is commonly used for footnotes in behavioral and social science publications. APA citation is an author-year-system. It is one of the most common styles used and taught at colleges and high schools. See here for more details, including APA formatting for bibliographies.Chicago
Format or style (also known as Turabian), created by the University of Chicago, is commonly used for footnotes in history, business, and fine arts and occasionally in the humanities, sciences, and social sciences. The Chicago style has two systems of citation. The author-date system (most common in social sciences and sciences) cites sources parenthetically in the text. The notes and bibliography system (most common in humanities) cites sources in numbered footnotes or endnotes which correspond to a superscript number in the text. See here for more details, including Chicago formatting for bibliographies.MLA
Modern Language Association (MLA) format or style is most commonly used for footnotes in the language arts, cultural studies, liberal arts, and humanities. MLA uses short parenthetical citations within the text that are linked to an alphabetical list of work cited at the end of the document. MLA commonly cites using this format: author's last name, first name, title, publication, edition or chapter, and year. See here for more details, including MLA formatting for bibliographies.AMA
American Medical Association (AMA) format or style is most commonly used for footnotes in medicine, biomedical research, nursing, dentistry, and other life sciences. AMA uses numerical superscript for citing sources in-text and refers to a list at the end of the work. These references appear in sequential order of when the sources were cited, instead of alphabetical order. See here for more details, including AMA formatting for bibliographies.
