Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
The census collects data on marital status and would be the best source to find this information. The State Department of Health would have health-specific information related to diseases. The Chamber of Commerce would have demographic information such as racial diversity and ethnic distribution. The library would have historical data on the community.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
To monitor, maintain, and promote the public's health, each state has a state health department and accompanying regional, county, and sometimes city health departments. Law enforcement departments have statistics regarding incidence of crime, vandalism, and drugs. The county health planning board has information about health needs and practices.
