blacks & whites are about the same. Native Americans smoke at a much higher clip and Asians much lower (particularly Asian women). don't really recall about Hispanics, I think it's a few points lower than blacks/whites.
I think we're probably talking about the same stats, then.
It actually surprises me that Asian women smoke at such low rates. I see a lot of young Asian women (college-aged) smoking in Seattle, I assume it's a weight control thing. Not claiming that's a better sample, but I'm surprised
I was actually just about to say the opposite. The college I went to (Stony Brook University) was about 25-30% or so Asian, and a bit higher than that of students who dormed (since most of the commuters were from Central Suffolk) and very few Asian women smoked.
