I have to perform a autoregressive CAR bayesian model on some cancer spatial data.
I have no clue where to find open dataset with spatial information about cancer data.

NIH's National Cancer Institute runs Geographic Information Systems and Science for Cancer Control (gis.cancer.gov) subdomain, which provides resources for interactive mapping, exploring, and downloading, geographically based cancer related information. Essentially its a service to prove/provide why spatial context matters, particularly regarding health, in the areas of environmental exposure, built & social environment, and access to health services.
