Group Results By

Select up to five variables that serve as keys for grouping your data. For example, you could select to group (summarize, stratify, index) your data by Year, State, and Race.

Birth Rates

Birth rates are calculated as the number of births divided by total population in the given year(s).

When the numerator is sub-set by mother's race category, Hispanic origin category, location, or year of birth, then the same sub-set for race, Hispanic origin category, location and year applies to the denominator population. If the data are sub-set by any other variable, then birth rates and denominator data are not available.

See Denominator Population Sources below for more information.

---

Fertility Rates

Fertility rates are calculated as the number of births divided by the number of females age 15 - 44 years old in the given year(s).

When the numerator is sub-set by mother's age, mother's race category, Hispanic origin category, location, or year of birth, then the same sub-set for age, race, Hispanic origin category, location and year applies to the denominator population. If data are sub-set by any other variable, then fertility rates and denominator data are not available.

See Denominator Population Sources below for more information.

• Why are there no records found for a specific county?

  When viewing births sorted "by County," please note that not all counties in a given state show births that were registered in that county. The state total displays all tabulated births for a given state. Some counties are not associated with tabulated births due to confidentiality concerns. Counties with a total population less than 100,000 persons report births under "Unidentified Counties" to protect personal privacy. The label "Unidentified Counties" designates the combined counties with less than 100,000 population in the indicated state.

  Notes:

  • If there are no records of births for a specific county, then request data for the entire state, grouped by County, to see the state total and the reporting counties for each state.
  • See also Connecticut counties in 2022-2023.

• What data elements are available in the Natality data?

  Please see Natality Data Items for more information.

  • Counties with a total population less than 100,000 persons report births under "Unidentified Counties" to protect personal privacy. The label "Unidentified Counties" designates the combined counties with less than 100,000 population in the indicated state. 1995-2002 data identify counties with a population of 100,000 persons or more in the year 1990 Census. 2003-2013 data identify counties with a population of 100,000 persons or more in the year 2000 Census. The data for 2014 and later years identify counties with a population of 100,000 persons or more in the year 2010 Census.

The FIPS state and county codes were established by the National Bureau of Standards, U.S. Department of Commerce in 1968. This standard set of codes provides names and codes for counties and county equivalents of the 50 states of the United States and the District of Columbia reporting area. Counties are considered to be the "first order subdivisions" of each State, regardless of their local designation (county, parish, borough). Washington, D.C.; the consolidated government of Columbus, Georgia; the independent cities of the States of Maryland, Missouri, Nevada, and Virginia; the census areas and boroughs of Alaska; and that part of Yellowstone Park in Montana are identified as county equivalents. The system is standard throughout the Federal Government. The State codes are ascending, two-digit numbers; the county codes are ascending three-digit numbers. For both the State and county codes, space has been left for new States or counties. Some changes in the FIPS codes have occurred since 1968.

A modified version of the FIPS state and county codes is used to identify states and counties on NCHS public-use data files. The modifications as implemented in the Natality public-use data are described below.

Modifications of FIPS State and County Codes

1. Counties with populations under 100,000 persons are grouped into "Unidentified Counties" (FIPS code 999) to protect privacy. The 2016-2021 data shows counties with a population of 100,000 persons or more in the year 2010 Census.
2. Baltimore, Maryland: the independent city of Baltimore, Maryland (FIPS code 24510) is reported separately from Baltimore county (FIPS code 24005).
3. Bronx, New York (FIPS code 36005) represents Bronx Borough, New York City.
4. Connecticut reports births for 8 legacy counties, yet population estimates for rate calculations are not available for the 8 legacy counties in 2022-2023. Population estimates aggregated for the 9 county-equivalant planning areas are reported in the "Unidentified Counties" category in Connecticut (FIPS code 09999). See Connecticut counties in 2022-2023.
5. Dade county, Florida (FIPS code 12025) was renamed Miami-Dade County (FIPS code 12086) effective November 13, 1997. However, the area is coded to Dade (12025) for all years.
6. Kings county, New York (FIPS code 36047) represents Brooklyn Borough, New York City.
7. New York county, New York (FIPS code 36061) represents Manhattan Borough, New York City.
8. Queens, New York (FIPS code 36081) represents Queens Borough, New York City.
9. Richmond county, New York (FIPS code 36085) represents Staten Island Borough, New York City.
10. St. Lois, Missouri: the independent city of St. Lois, Missouri (FIPS code 29510) is reported separately from St. Louis county (FIPS code 29189).
