Notes

In September 2019, new lead data was received from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program for the years 2014-2018. Due to changes in data processing from MDHHS that changed counts for both testing and confirmed cases, data for 2014-2018 should not be compared to years 2010-2013.



Starting in 2018, the same year populations are used to generate percentages. Before 2018, the prior year's populations were used due to availability of population estimates at the time of data release.
