• Description:
  The Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) Selected Metropolitan/Micropolitan Area Risk Trends (SMART) is a documented and verified subset of the 2023 BRFSS that contains the core questions and calculated variables. The optional modules are not included. This data set has been produced to provide some local-area estimates. These local areas are identified as metropolitan or micropolitan statistical areas (MMSAs), as defined by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). The data set was produced by adding new raking weights designed to correspond to the 2023 population estimates for each eligible MMSA. Typically, BRFSS data are used to produce state-level estimates; however, for the SMART project, BRFSS data were used to produce small area-level estimates for MMSAs as defined by the US Census Bureau. On June 6, 2003, OMB issued new definitions for MMSA and metropolitan divisions. OMB periodically updates the list of MMSAs. The list of areas used for this analysis can be found in the Historical Delineation Files. The March 2020 release was used for defining the MMSAs in the 2023 SMART data set.
