About

This metric shows the percentage of women ages 19 and below who are pregnant. It is calculated by dividing the total number of teenage women who are pregnant by the total number of teenage women. For more information about the age categories used, see the note below. Notes: Data is only available at the county level and cannot be mapped by tract. Because we used two different sources to create this metric, the age categories do not perfectly match. The age categories we used from CDC (numerator) are ages 19 and below, while the categories we used from Census (denominator) are ages 10-19.
