FY 2020 Disability Compensation Recipients by County

This report provides county-level estimates of the number of Veterans who received VA Disability Compensation benefits during fiscal year 2020. It includes the Veterans’ total service-connected disability (SCD) rating, age group, and gender. Blank values represent small cell counts that have been suppressed to protect the identity of Veterans. In the "Total: Disability Compensation Recipients" column, each blank cell represents less than 10 Veterans. Some categories may not sum to the total due to missing information (e.g., age, gender, etc.).
