from the article:
"recent national survey found that nearly 18 percent of Connecticut 12- to 17-year-olds used alcohol in the previous month, the highest rate in the country.
Youth alcohol use is more common in the northeast than anywhere else in the country: New Jersey, Vermont, New York, Rhode Island and Massachusetts follow Connecticut at the top of the list.
The survey also showed that Connecticut ranked No. 4 among all states for the percentage of its 18 and older population who reported drinking in the last month."
