The document shows obesity rate trends among U.S. adults from 1990 to 2009 based on data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. The maps add new percentage categories over time, showing obesity rates increasing and spreading to more areas, with rates at or above 30% becoming more common in later years.

Editor's Notes
- For many years CDC has demonstrated through data and graphic maps the continuing rise in obesity. The data shown in the following maps were collected through CDCβs Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS). In 1990, among states participating in the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, ten states had a prevalence of obesity less than 10% and no states had prevalence equal to or greater than 15%.
- In 2009, only one state (Colorado) and the District of Columbia had a prevalence of obesity less than 20%. Thirty-three states had a prevalence equal to or greater than 25%; nine of these states (Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and West Virginia) had a prevalence of obesity equal to or greater than 30% (1)
