Data Notes

These rates are crude rates, not age-adjusted, given that the Healthy People 2020 Objective is based on crude rates. Use caution when interpreting estimates marked with an asterisk (*) in the data table. They have a coefficient of variation >30% and are therefore deemed unreliable by Utah Department of Health and Human Services standards.

Definition

'''''Binge drinking''''' is defined as a pattern of alcohol consumption that brings the blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level to 0.08% or above. This typically happens when men consume 5 or more drinks, and when women consume 4 or more drinks, on one occasion. It is listed as the percentage of survey respondents who reported binge drinking during the 30 days prior to the survey.
