Niagra also notes:

"Federal reports says Niagara County has high deaths due to heart, cancer afflictions.  The report from the The Health Resources and Services Administration states deaths from lung cancer, breast cancer, stroke, and heart disease were significantly above the national average. The report compared Niagara County with counties with similar demographics in 14 other states and in Broome and Oneida Counties in New York.
