I thought only law enforcement had access to our LTC data? :confused5
You are correct. We are talking about the totals by county or zip code. They cannot release data that identifies specific LTC holders.

My zip is 3800, Good Old Katy, not New Katy which definitely has more people than Old Katy. :patriot:

Our zip ranked 18, 2859 LTC out of total of 63,140 (all ages) or 5%. Assuming adults above 21 are less than 50% than 1 in 10 do have an LTC

1,927 in my zip. I don't think that's too bad since we only have a population of 8,000 people.

The estimated 2015 population of Grapevine is 50,844 - according to the city's Wikipedia page. That makes for 4.23% with LTCs.......of course that population figure includes children and other indelible people, so I don't know if you could legitimately say it was that high.

If it is correct, there is a population of 1,250 where I live.

403 LTC

So basically 1/3 of the population. :biggrinjester:

I caught this headline this morning on one of my feeds.
