RAND Center for Population Health and Health Disparities (CPHHD) Data Core Series: Disability, 2000 [United States]

The RAND Center for Population Health and Health Disparities (CPHHD) Data Core Series is composed of a wide selection of analytical measures, encompassing a variety of domains, all derived from a number of disparate data sources. The CPHHD Data Core's central focus is on geographic measures for census tracts, counties, and Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) from two distinct geo-reference points, 1990 and 2000. The current study, Disability, contains cross-sectional data from the year 2000. Based on the Decennial Census Special Table Series published by the Administration on Aging, this study contains a large number of disability measures categorized by age (55+), type of disability (sensory, learning, employment, and self-care), and poverty status.
