This indicator shows the percentage of tobacco retailers not complying with the minimum age laws during tobacco compliance checks in Marathon County.
Why is this important?
Raising the minimum age for tobacco sales to 21 helps reduce tobacco use among young people. That's important because tobacco use remains the leading cause of preventable deaths in the U.S.—and nearly 95% of adult smokers say they started using tobacco before 21.
