A new study reports that more Minnesota smokers are kicking the habit and at a faster pace than other smokers around the country. And that’s good news for the state.
Minnesota’s adult smoking rate is measured at a new low of 17 percent, compared to about 20 percent nationwide, according to the statewide telephone survey. The number of smokers has fallen steadily in the state since the late 1990s, with 164,000 fewer adults smoking last year than in 1999.
