What stands out in Tigard

Data from Polco GPAL
Standouts compare Tigard with communities in Oregon or of similar population size. Surprises are where the measured figure was unusually far from what Polco's model expected. Each fact gives its year; public data runs one to two years behind.

In 2022, Tigard was more favorable than communities in Oregon on adults who smoke cigarettes.
