U.S. Abortion Statistics

A few years old, but still a great reference on abortions in the USA.

Here are a few interesting stats:

The abortion rate of non-metropolitan women is about half that of women who live in metropolitan counties

Black women are more than 4.8 times more likely than non-Hispanic white women to have an abortion, and Hispanic women are 2.7 times as likely

In 1998, the last year for which estimates were made, more than 23% of legal induced abortions were performed in California

I can’t understand how Russia is capable of so many abortions. I thought that half the population is gay.
