• Source of the data
• The data shown in these maps were collected
  through CDCs Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance
  System (BRFSS). Each year, state health
  departments use standard procedures to collect
  data through a series of monthly telephone
  interviews with U.S. adults
• Prevalence estimates generated for the maps may
  vary slightly from those generated for the states
  by BRFSS (http//aps.nccd.cdc.gov/brfss) as
  slightly different analytic methods are used.
