Adults 65+ with a Self-Care Difficulty

Census Tract: 06111001502
Measurement Period: 2015-2019
This indicator shows the percentage of the population aged 65 years and over with a self-care difficulty.

Why is this important?

People with a self-care difficulty encounter challenges in performing activities of daily living (ADLs), such as dressing or bathing. Older adults are at increased risk for experiencing self-care difficulties. Depending on the severity of the disability, people with a self-care difficulty may require additional assistance in the home to conduct daily activities.

Technical note: The U.S. Census Bureau calculates 90% confidence intervals for American Community Survey estimates. Use caution when interpreting values with wide confidence intervals. Confidence intervals that are farther away from estimates in either direction indicate uncertainty due to small survey sample sizes. The U.S. Census Bureau does not recommend comparing overlapping 5-year periods since much of the data in each estimate are the same. Use caution when comparing estimates for census tracts over time as these geographies are redefined with each decennial census according to population changes.
