This report presents national, regional, and state estimates of past month binge drinking among young people aged 12-20. Compared with 2010–12, the estimate of past month underage binge drinking in 2012–14 was lower in the nation as a whole (15.87% vs. 14.44%). Although the national trend in underage drinking is declining, underage drinking remains a concern in the U.S., and states and local communities experience the negative health, social, and economic consequences every year.
