Description:In 1985, 23 States and the District of Columbia reported information on births of Hispanic parentage (table 1). Because the vast majority of the Hispanic population in this country (an estimated 92 percent) resides in these States (the Hispanic reporting area), the birth statistics in this report are believed to be representative of fertility for the Hispanic population in the United States (U.S. Bureau of the Census, in press).
Previous publications have described the demographic and health characteristics of Hispanic births occurring in 1978-84 (NCHS, 1981,1982, 1983, 1984b, 1985, 1987). Additionally, birth and fertility rates by Hispanic origin for each State were computed for 1980, using population information available only from the decennial census (NCHS, 1983, 1984a).
