Description:

CDC has released the 2019 Adult Obesity Prevalence Maps for 49 states, the District of Columbia, and 2 US territories. The maps show self-reported adult obesity prevalence by race, ethnicity, and location. The data comes from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, an on-going state-based, telephone interview survey conducted by CDC and state health departments

The 2019 maps show that obesity impacts some groups more than others. There are notable differences by race and ethnicity, as shown by combined data from 2017-2019:

• 6 states had an obesity prevalence of 35 percent or higher among non-Hispanic White adults.

• 15 states had an obesity prevalence of 35 percent or higher among Hispanic adults.

• 34 states and the District of Columbia had an obesity prevalence of 35 percent or higher among non-Hispanic Black adults.
