QuickStats: Percentage of U.S. Adults Who Looked up Health Information on the Internet in the Past Year, by Type of Locality-National Health Interview Survey, 2012-2014
With 95% confidence intervals.
Based on sample adult's response to a question asking if, during the past 12 months, the person ever used computers to look up health information on the Internet. Responses were not limited to those who indicated that they had Internet access.
Counties were classified into urbanization levels based on a classification scheme developed by the National Center for Health Statistics, CDC, that considers metropolitan/nonmetropolitan status, population, and other factors.
Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian, noninstitutionalized U.S. population and are derived from the National Health Interview Survey sample adult questionnaire.
During 2012-2014, the percentage of adults aged ≥18 years who reported looking up health information on the Internet during the previous 12 months was lower among those residing in nonmetropolitan counties (33.7%-38.9%) than among those residing in metropolitan counties (44.3%-49.0%). The percentage was lowest among adult residents of rural counties (33.7%) and highest among adult residents of large fringe metropolitan counties (49.0%). Adult residents of large central, medium, and small metropolitan counties reported similar usage (44.3%-45.5%).
