Description:"OBJECTIVES: This report presents state-level estimates of the percentage of households that do not have a landline telephone, but do have at least one wireless telephone. These wireless-only households made up 14.7% of U.S. households in 2007. The report also presents state-level estimates of the percentage of adults living in wireless-only households. These wireless-only adults made up 13.6% of U.S. adults in 2007. METHODS: A two-sample modeling strategy was used to estimate the prevalence of wireless-only households and adults by state. This modeling was based on data from the 2007 National Health Interview Survey and the 2008 Current Population Survey's Annual and Social Economic Supplement. RESULTS: The results show that the prevalence of wireless-only households and adults in 2007 varied substantially across states. State-level estimates ranged from 5.1% (Vermont) to 26.2% (Oklahoma) of households and from 4.0% (Delaware) to 25.1% (Oklahoma) of adults. In addition, approximately one out of four adults (25.4%) living in the District of Columbia were wireless-only."
