When you go outside on a sunny summer day for more than one hour, how often do you: use sunscreen or sun block, stay in the shade, wear a wide-brimmed hat or any other hat that shades your face, ears, and neck from the sun, or wear long-sleeved shirts? Would you say: always, nearly always, sometimes, seldom, or never? What is the sun protection factor or SPF of the sunscreen you use most often?

Prior to 2015 San Juan County was part of the Southeast Local Health District. In 2015 the San Juan County Local Health District was formed. Data reported are for all years using the current boundaries.

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 [http://ibis.health.utah.gov/pdf/resource/Algorithm.pdf]

This output is based on BRFSS data collected through both landline and cellular phones and utilizes an improved weighting methodology. For more information about this methodology see: [https://ibis.health.utah.gov/pdf/opha/resource/brfss/RakingImpact2011.pdf]

Denominator includes all survey respondents ages 18 years and older except those with missing, don't know and refused answers. If the query was limited to a particular sub-population-group, only those respondents are included in the denominator.

Age-adjusted rates are based on 5 age groups: 18-24, 25-34, 35-44, 45-64, and 65+, unless the query has been narrowed by the race demographic characteristic.

If race has been selected, age-adjusted rates are based on 3 age groups: 18-34, 35-49, and 50+.

When there are no observations for one or more of the age categories used for age adjustment, the response categories may not sum to 100%.

The confidence bounds are asymmetric.
