Prevelence rate = (persons having a given disease in pariticular period of time / total population )* 100000

1. prevalence rate in jacksonville = ( 322/880619) * 100000= 36.565%

2. prevalence rate in Miami = ( 299/714620)*100000 = 41.84%

3. prevalence rate in Phoenix = ( 289/ 1615017)*100000 = 17.89%

4. prevalence rate in Austin = ( 281/947890)*100000 = 29.64%
