• Educational Attainment among Adults (0)

Description: For the category for less than high school education, the highest level of education attained includes less than ninth grade education, as well as ninth to twelfth grade education without a high school diploma. For the high school graduates category, the highest level of education attained includes high school diploma or equivalency. For the some college education category, the highest level of education attained includes associate’s degree or some college education without a degree. For the bachelor's degree or higher category, the highest level of education attained includes bachelor’s, graduate, or professional degree. Due to rounding, educational attainment categories may not sum to 100%.

Educational attainment is an important driver of life expectancy, as people with higher levels of education are more likely to obtain well-paying jobs, live in safer neighborhoods, have access to quality healthcare, and engage in healthier behaviors.
