The CS rate peaked in 1991 at 107.3 cases per 100,000 live births, and declined by 90.5% to 10.2 cases/per 100,000 live births in 2002.

The HP2010 objective for CS is 1.0 case per 100,000 live births. In 2002, 27 states, the District of Columbia, and one outlying area had rates higher than this objective.
