The Healthcare Delivery Research Program of the National Cancer Institute is excited to share the Social Determinants of Health data set.
Request the data set and documentation at https://healthcaredelivery.cancer.gov/social-determinants/.
This data set includes, for each US census tract (defined using 2010 census tract boundaries), certain social determinants of health data elements, including race/ethnicity, education, poverty, urban/rural, socioeconomic status, and racial residential segregation indices defined using 2008-2012 American Community Survey data and 2010 definitions of rural urban commuting areas.
The Social Determinants of Health data set is publicly available, pending an application and data use agreement.
The Social Determinants of Health data set was created as part of research activities of the NCI-funded Population-based Research to Optimize the Screening Process (PROSPR) network.
