Query Builder for Population Estimates Query Module for Utah Small Areas - Count

Overview

The population estimates were produced by staff in the Utah Department of Health and Human Services Division of Data, Systems, and Evaluation. Linear interpolation of U.S. Census Bureau, Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute population estimates and ESRI ZIP Code data provided annual population estimates for ZIP Code areas by sex and age groups, IBIS Version 2022.

"Utah Small Areas" refers to a set of geographic areas in Utah with population sizes ranging from approximately 15,000 to 60,000 persons. These geographic areas are especially useful for doing public health assessment in communities within Utah's urban counties. Utah Small Area population numbers are not available for race, ethnicity, or single year of age.

As of November 22, 2017, the IBIS system has been updated to use an algorithm which uses both ZIP and county information to designate Local Health District (LHD) and Utah Small Area. Queries by LHD or Small Area may yield different numbers than in prior months. For more information go to [https://ibis.utah.gov/ibisph-view/pdf/resource/Algorithm.pdf]

Getting Started

Follow the steps to narrow your query and display your results. When you are done forming your query, click "Submit" at the bottom of the screen (last step) to get your query result.

*******Data Alert*******

Since November 22, 2017, Utah Small Areas are designated by new Utah LHD and Small Area designation algorithm. For more information go to [https://ibis.utah.gov/ibisph-view/pdf/resource/Algorithm.pdf]

  • Select from list of years

  • First choose a coding scheme to use for age groups. Default is age adjustment age groups, all ages.

  • Would you like to include only males or only females in the results? Default includes both sexes.

  • Default is all Utah Small Areas

To display a map, you must select Geographic Area in Display By (category) and None in Group By (series)

Primary group by field

Defines the data's primary grouping dimension. The primary grouping is required and also controls the ordering of the result's data rows. In MS-Excel and other graphing packages this is typically referred to as the the "dataset's category". If viewing in a 2-d table layout then this value/dimension is associated with table's "row" values. Others will refer to this value as the first "cross by" or the first dimension.

Optional secondary group by field

Defines the 2nd field (or dimension) to be used to group and aggregate values by. MS-Excel chart users will commonly refer to this as the dataset's "series" field. If viewing in a 2-d table layout then this field is associated with data table's value columns. Series group bys are optional. Maps and some charts, like the "Pie" chart, are currently not programmed to handle datasets that have more than one group by e.g. they only work with the primary category type group by being specified.

Optional chart graph

Defines the optional chart graphic to display.

NOTE: Maps and some charts, like the "Pie" chart, are currently not programmed to handle datasets that have more than one group by e.g. they only work with the primary category type group by being specified. All other charts will only work with a maximum of 2 group bys e.g. if the fixed group by exists then the series group by can NOT be used with charting or maps.

Optional map graph

Defines the optional map graphic to display.

NOTE: Maps are only available when the category is set to a geographical area and does not have a series defined.
