| Age | Rates increase with age reaching the highest levels in the eight and ninth decades of life. |
| Gender | Males have higher rates than females. |
| Race & SES* | Generally in the United States incidence rates are slightly lower in African Americans. Rates are higher in upper income groups. |
| Other | Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma develops with increased frequency in individuals infected with certain viruses, particularly the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Exposures to agricultural chemicals and high-dose radiation exposures have also been implicated. |

Idaho's highest rates in 1995 were observed in those over age 60. Females had rates that were some-what higher than males in some age groups. The peak of distribution is within the 75-84 age interval. Most of the health districts have age-adjusted incidence rates that do not differ significantly from Idaho's age-adjusted incidence rate.
