Brief description
The estimated number of people that had ‘poor' or ‘fair' health and those people as a rate of the total population. The data on which the estimates are based are self-reported responses, reported to interviewers in the 2014–15 National Health Survey. Respondents aged 15 years and over were asked to assess their health on a scale from ‘poor' to ‘excellent' (the scale was ‘poor', ‘fair', ‘good', ‘very good', or ‘excellent'). The data reported are the sum of responses categorised as ‘poor' or ‘fair' (all entries that were classified as not shown, not published or not applicable were assigned a null value; no data was provided for Maralinga Tjarutja LGA, in South Australia). The data is by LGA 2015 profile (based on the LGA 2011 geographic boundaries). For more information on statistics used please refer to the PHIDU website, available from: [http://phidu.torrens.edu.au/](http://phidu.torrens.edu.au/help-and-information/about-our-data/statistical-information).Source: Estimates for Population Health Areas (PHAs) are modelled estimates and were produced by the ABS; estimates at the LGA and PHN level were derived from the PHA estimates.
