According to a report from FOX 56 on May 30th, a recent study on Americans aged 18 to 24 (Z generation) from 2017 to 2022 showed that Kentucky's Z generation is one of the most frequent users of e-cigarettes nationwide.
Forbes Advisor analyzed "hundreds of data points" on e-cigarette use among Generation Z age group in all 50 states from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) over a six-year period (2016 to 2022). The study found that e-cigarette users in Kentucky increased by 4.9% in the past six years, which is higher than the average rate of 3.1%. Furthermore, Kentucky has the highest proportion of daily e-cigarette users in the United States, reaching 6%.
Despite having a lower number of adult e-cigarette users per day compared to Kentucky, Tennessee ranks first in a recent study due to the higher percentage growth of Generation Z individuals using e-cigarettes and other related products at 5.1%.
According to the data, seven of the ten states with the highest number of e-cigarette users are located in the South: Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and West Virginia. The survey also shows that the other states in the top ten for the highest number of e-cigarette users in Generation Z are Idaho, North Dakota, and Hawaii.
