Note. Prevalence is mean prevalence across years of data (2003–2007); results are weighted to reflect sampling and selection probability as well as poststratification based on county population (n = 997,429–1,017,345) depending upon the year.
Current cigarette, cigar, and little cigar use is measured as reports of smoking each tobacco product “every day” or “some days.” Each product category is not mutually exclusive.
