Key PointsQuestionDuring 2013-2016, were there differences in the prevalence of obesity and severe obesity by demographics and urbanization level among US adults? FindingsIn this cross-sectional analysis that included 10 792 adults aged 20 years or older, differences were found in the prevalence of obesity and severe obesity by age group, race and Hispanic origin, and education level. The prevalence of obesity was significantly greater among women living in nonmetropolitan statistical areas (non-MSAs; 47.2%) compared with women living in large MSAs (38.1%), and the prevalence of severe obesity in non-MSAs was higher than in large MSAs among men (9.9% vs 4.1%, respectively) and women (13.5% vs 8.1%, respectively). MeaningDifferences in age group, race and Hispanic origin, education level, or smoking status were not related to the differences in the prevalence of obesity and severe obesity by urbanization level.
