BRFSSNOTE: Numbers below represent frequency counts of responses to each question. Data were collected during the 2002 calendar year as a one-time project. Those counties with fewer than 30 respondents per question have been grouped with an adjacent county, or several adjacent counties, to bring the counts up to a more reliable level. The Outdoor Recreation Survey was conducted as part of the Montana BRFSS telephone survey and is unique. Therefore, these data should not be used for comparison with other county surveys and should not be combined with other county data for any purpose.
