Sub State Baseline Data:

In addition to recent estimates of substance use and abuse for entire States, estimates are available for sub State areas defined by each State for the purpose of allocating the substance abuse treatment block grant funds from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). Click here for definitions of each sub State regions identified by each State . Estimates are provided for each of the 331 sub State areas representing collectively the 50 States and the District of Columbia. These estimates are based on combined data from the 1999-2001 National Surveys on Drug Use and Health (NSDUHs), formerly called the National Household Survey on Drug Abuse (NHSDA). The survey, sponsored by SAMHSA, collects information from residents of households, residents of non institutionalized group quarters (e.g., shelters, rooming houses, dormitories), and civilians living on military bases. We recommend the PDF version for printing sub-State data and maps. Click here for the full report to get data for the sub State regions for all States
