In the Surveillance Summary “Health-Related Behaviors by Urban-Rural County Classification — United States, 2013,” errors occurred in Table 1 and Table 2. On page 5, in Table 1, under the Micropolitan column, the 95% CI values should have been (75.7–77.3) for the current nonsmoking row and (29.8–31.4) for the maintaining normal body weight row; under the Noncore column, the 95% CI values should have been (74.0–75.9) for the current nonsmoking row, (28.0–29.8) for the maintaining body weight row, and (45.7–47.7) for the meeting aerobic physical activity recommendations row. On page 6, in Table 2, errors occurred in footnotes and the table is reprinted below.
