While a primary purpose for collection of vital records
is to record information on vital events for legal
purposes, vital records files also serve as an important
source for statistical information. Vital statistics
data developed from these records can be accessed
through the links below for the full range of vital
events including births, deaths, marriages and divorces.
Basic counts for the number of events, rates and
detailed cross tabulations are provided. Statistical
information for Michigan with national comparisons
are included along with extensive data at the county
and community level.
County and State Health Statistics Profiles
Profiles of county and state vital events statistics are presented in a one page summary form for each county and the state as a whole. The profiles contain those data most often requested of the Vital Records & Health Statistics Section.
