Rural and southern women were more overweight than their urban, northern, and western counterparts. Overweight was inversely related to family income and education. Black women were first clearly more obese than white women in the third decade of life. Black women born in later decades tended to be more overweight than those born earlier. The age-adjusted prevalence of overweight was 47.1 percent in 1960-1962, 46.8 percent in 1971-1974, and 48.1 percent in 1976-1980 for black women aged 25 to 74 years, much higher than that of white women or men of either race. Overweight is a major health problem for black women in the United States.
