Health Status of Cyclists

• Data source: CDC - BRFSS (https://www.cdc.gov/brfss/)
  • Includes data from 2011 - 2015
• Showing the chronic disease status of peopel who ride bicyles regularly
  • The older age groups show higher levels of chronic diseases risks (the bright color on the right side)
  • Cyclists who have higher exercise score tend to be heathier (the dark color on the higher level)
• I used Hierarchical Clustering to cluster the cyclists into four groups based on their exercise schedule, health status, sex, and age.
  • Group 1 and 2 are the prodominent groups.
  • Group 3 and 4 have lowest exercise scores (the squares and the crosses on the bottom right).
