Abstract	Twenty-three states and the District of Columbia collected information on births of Hispanic parentage in 1983 and 1984. More than 92% of the total Hispanic population in the United States resided in those states at this time. This report summarizes the available demographic information and presents data on births of Hispanic parentage in the following categories: (1) geographic distribution; (2) race of the child; (3) birth and fertility rates; (4) age of mother and live birth order; (5) childbearing by unmarried women; (6) educational attainment of mother; (7) nativity of mother; (8) prenatal care and number of prenatal visits to a health care professional; (9) low birth weight; (10) preterm births; (11) Apgar scores, which measure health factors of an infant at birth; and (12) health care attendant at birth and place of delivery. Comparisons are made with the parentage of non-Hispanic Blacks and Whites. Fourteen tables of statistics accompany this report. (VM)
