              There are numerous correlations with cumulative AIDS rates in the Pittsburgh region. These correlations help compile evidence for where AIDS is striking, and why. Furthermore, the associations made are used to identify key signals or identifying factors for the spread of new AIDS cases within Allegheny County. The correlations presented include everything from governmental assisted income, regular income, poverty, education, race, sex offenders, and sexuality or living arrangements. In addition, they are calculated with a confidence interval of 95% and a significance level of 0.279 for a sample size of 50 which includes many of the zip codes within Allegheny County, PA. However, many of the correlations presented well surpass the needed confidence interval for 95%, and therefore can be calculated at a higher confidence interval to be used for further examination. This secondary confidence interval is set at 99%, and requires a level of 0.451 to determine whether the correlation is significant or not, but is still inclusive with the sample size   of 50.
