• Description:
  The Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) is an ongoing, state-based, random- digit–dialed telephone survey of noninstitutionalized adults 18 years of age or older, residing in the United States.1, 2 For detailed descriptions of the BRFSS questionnaires, data, and reports, please see the BRFSS website. For the BRFSS data collection in 2023, all 50 states, the District of Columbia (DC), Guam, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands conducted interviews with participants on household landline telephones and cellular telephones. During this 2023 collection period, however, Kentucky and Pennsylvania were unable to collect enough data to meet the minimum requirements to be included in this public data set. The BRFSS data collection, structure, and weighting methodology changed in 2011 to allow the addition of data collection by cellular telephones. The BRFSS survey uses disproportionate stratified sample (DSS) design for landline telephone samples and random sample design for the cellular telephone survey. The BRFSS used iterative proportional fitting (IPF)—also known as raking—for weighting the 2023 BRFSS data. Because of sample design and the multiple reporting areas, the BRFSS data showed some variation between states and territories for the 2023 data year. The following sections identify important similarities and variations for the 2023 data year from previous years.
