For Early Child Development and Health indicators, "LOWER" or "HIGHER" means that the 95% confidence intervals do not overlap and that the rates are different from Durham Region. Similar means that the Health Neighbourhood is similar to Durham Region as a whole for that indicator. When "LOWER" or "HIGHER" is in blue, the indicator is neutral in terms of health. Green indicates that the Neighbourhood is doing better in terms of health than Durham Region and red indicates it is worse. Estimates with high variability are marked with an asterisk (*) and should be used with caution. Some estimates are not releasable due to small numbers.
