Can someone please tell me the name of the website that shows cancer zones? (it's not really called cancer zones but I can't remember the correct term)

The "hot spots" ???
I know I asked this question before and I cannot remember if there was an actual site.
Maybe someone else can help us out.

Oh, I think they are called Cancer Clusters, maybe?

I saw it once on Newsday.com, maybe if you do a search on their site.

You can look up by zip code. http://www.health.ny.gov/statistics/cancer/registry/zipcode/index.htm
My zip code was within 15% of expected breast cancers, other zip codes were above expected.

Yikes my town and great neck are the highest for breast cancer! How scary, I wonder if it has to do w age. The population here is much much older then other areas.
