Percent Distribution by definition
Percent Distribution by. Stage at Diagnosis: The distribution of incident cancer within counties is expressed as percentage localized, regional, distant, and unstaged for cancers of the oral cavity and pharynx (both sexes); colon and rectum (both sexes); melanoma and the skin (both sexes); and for invasive cervix and prostate. Female breast cancer incidence data are displayed with in situ stage, in addition to localized, regional, distant, and unstaged stage categories. Data by race are available for 15 counties (Champaign, Cook, DuPage, ▇▇▇▇, Kankakee, Lake, Macon, Madison, Peoria, Rock Island, Sangamon, St. Clair, Vermilion, Will, and Winnebago) that have sufficiently large Black populations to allow meaningful statistics for racial subgroups.

Race-specific Rates: At the state level, the race-specific categories include "White," "Black," and "Asian/Other Races." The “Asian/Other Races” category includes Asian-Americans, Pacific Islanders, American Indians, Alaskan Natives, and all other races. Cases reported as unknown race were included in the "All Races" category, but not in any race-specific group. At the county level, race-specific data are available for Whites and Blacks in 15 counties (Champaign, Cook, DuPage, Kane, Kankakee, Lake, Macon, Madison, Peoria, Rock Island, Sangamon, St. ▇▇▇▇▇, Vermilion, Will, and Winnebago). These same race groupings are available on the Cook County-specific file. No race-specific data are available at the ZIP code level.
