Notes: 

Data are for 2007. These are the estimated percentages after applying the sampling weights.

Data based on The National Survey of Children's Health, sponsored by the Maternal and Child Health Bureau of the Health Resources and Services Administration, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The NSCH examines the physical and emotional health of children ages 0-17 years of age. Special emphasis is placed on factors that may relate to well-being of children, including medical homes, family interactions, parental health, school and after-school experiences, and safe neighborhoods. For more detailed analyses of the survey's findings, see the Data Resource Center on Child and Adolescent Health (DRC); available at http://www.nschdata.org/Content/Default.aspx.
