*Rate per 1,000 female 10-17 age-group population
Teenage pregnancies include the sum of live births, reported abortions and fetal deaths.
The 1991-1996 female 10-17 age-group population estimates were compiled by the Kansas
Department of Health and Environment based on 1990 U.S. Census Bureau totals. County estimates
have been adjusted to 1991-1996 state totals released by the U.S. Census Bureau as of 1996.
