Abstract
The report contains cancer mortality rates and changes in rates for counties of the United States for 1950-1959, 1960-1969, and 1970-1979. This report includes the number of deaths and cancer mortality rates age-adjusted to the 1970 U.S. population for each of 35 site-specific cancers for four race-sex groups. Further, counties are ranked nationally by percentile for 1970-1979 age-adjusted death rates and for percent change from 1950-1959 to 1970-1979.
