Age-adjusted mortality rate per 100,000 people from heart disease in in 2017
The environment is one of several factors that can lead to an increased risk for heart disease. High levels of air pollution and extreme hot and cold temperatures have been linked to increases in heart disease and deaths from heart attacks. A heart attack happens when a part of the heart muscle dies or gets damaged because of reduced blood supply.

Recommendation:
Lead is a metal found naturally in the environment and has been used in many products, including paint and gasoline. While there are some beneficial uses, it can also be toxic to humans and cause adverse health effects. People can become exposed to lead by swallowing or breathing in lead dust which causes lead poisoning.

Arizonans spend considerable time traveling to and from work. Time spent commuting is associated with several health outcomes. Car commuters generally have higher exposure to vehicle emissions, including particulate matter, carbon monoxide, and black carbon, which can lead to negative respiratory outcomes such as asthma exacerbation.
Traffic-related air pollution is a major cause of unhealthy air quality, especially in urban areas. The closer your home or school is to a major highway, the more likely you and your family are to be exposed to traffic-related air pollution.

Birth Outcomes:
Our understanding of risk factors related to birth outcomes has increased over the years. Environmental exposures, such as
can play an adverse role in birth outcomes. To better understand the contribution of environmental exposures to adverse birth outcomes, Arizona Tracking collects and displays data on preterm birth, infant deaths, and birth weight.
Birth Defects:
Most birth defects are thought to be caused by a complex mix of genetic, behavioral, and environmental factors. However, for many birth defects, exactly how these factors work together is unclear. Environmental exposures like first and second hand smoke, chemicals or pesticides, and indoor and outdoor air pollution (this list is not exhaustive) have been linked to various birth defects. The causes of many birth defects are unclear and more research is needed to study the links between environmental hazards and birth defects.
Out of the 10 birth defects tracked, from 2012-2016, the 3 most frequent birth defects reported in County were:
Percent of low birth weight per 1,000 live births (2017)
