Database Detail
| Name | Births (CA only) (Archives, 1989-2013) |
| Summary | Number of births by demographic characteristics of parents, birth and fertility rates, birth weights, delivery type and payment, and level of prenatal care |
| Additional Background | This database is no longer updated. See Related Databases.
This database contains the number of births by demographic characteristics of parents, birth and fertility rates, birth weights, delivery type and payment, and level of prenatal care. Data are available at the county level. Data are not available for all combinations of categories and areas.
Birth and fertility rate calculations vary slightly over the periods 1989-2009 and 2010-2013 because of changes in demographic methodologies by the U.S. Bureau of the Census. In short, birth counts in the first period reflect births to Black, White, Hispanic, or all mothers, as defined by the Census Bureau. In the second period, birth counts reflect births to mothers in different demographic groups: Black alone, White alone, American Indian/Alaska Native alone, Asian alone, Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander alone, or Two races in combination. Users should exercise caution when comparing birth counts, birth rates, and fertility rates over these time periods. This table contains a detailed description of birth and fertility rate calculations.

Set APA as default format
APA
Format or style, from the American Psychological Association, is commonly used for footnotes in behavioral and social science publications. APA citation is an author-year-system. It is one of the most common styles used and taught at colleges and high schools. See here for more details, including APA formatting for bibliographies.Chicago
Format or style (also known as Turabian), created by the University of Chicago, is commonly used for footnotes in history, business, and fine arts and occasionally in the humanities, sciences, and social sciences. The Chicago style has two systems of citation. The author-date system (most common in social sciences and sciences) cites sources parenthetically in the text. The notes and bibliography system (most common in humanities) cites sources in numbered footnotes or endnotes which correspond to a superscript number in the text. See here for more details, including Chicago formatting for bibliographies.MLA
Modern Language Association (MLA) format or style is most commonly used for footnotes in the language arts, cultural studies, liberal arts, and humanities. MLA uses short parenthetical citations within the text that are linked to an alphabetical list of work cited at the end of the document. MLA commonly cites using this format: author's last name, first name, title, publication, edition or chapter, and year. See here for more details, including MLA formatting for bibliographies.AMA
American Medical Association (AMA) format or style is most commonly used for footnotes in medicine, biomedical research, nursing, dentistry, and other life sciences. AMA uses numerical superscript for citing sources in-text and refers to a list at the end of the work. These references appear in sequential order of when the sources were cited, instead of alphabetical order. See here for more details, including AMA formatting for bibliographies.Derived From: Center for Health Statistics, California Department of Public Health
