| Age | Rates usually increase steadily with age. |
| Gender | Males have substantially higher rates than females. |
| Race | Incidence rates are slightly higher in African Americans. |
| Occupation | Occupational exposures, most prominently aniline dye used in textile, rubber, and cable industries, are associated with a large proportion of cases. |
| Other | Tobacco consumption has been associated with a six-fold higher incidence of bladder tumor. Beta-naphthylamine, 4-amino-diphenyl, and tobacco tar have also been implicated in animal studies as possible causative factors. Chronic infections, calculus disease, and Schistosoma hematobium may also cause bladder tumor. |

There were few cases of bladder cancer among persons aged less than 40 years. Bladder cancer incidence rates increased with age, peaking in the age group 85+ for males, and 75-79 for females. Health Districts 6 and 7 had significantly fewer cases than expected based upon rates for the remainder of Idaho (p<0.05).
