“In 2000, Arizona ranked second with 14,287 teen pregnancies.

White non-Hispanics account for the largest portion of the decrease. Teenage girls 17 and under in that group became pregnant at a rate of 6.4 per 1,000 in 2004.

However, the rate for Arizona Hispanic teens in the same period was 29.7 per 1,000, according to the same study.”
