艾伦·古特马赫研究所1989年的一项调查显示，1988年美国进行了160万例堕胎手术，这一数字自1980年以来一直保持相对稳定。1987-1988年间，98%以上的堕胎是在大都市地区进行的。虽然51%的大都市县没有堕胎服务提供者，但93%的非大都市县没有提供者。自1985年以来，提供堕胎服务的医院数量减少了13%，加剧了非大都市地区堕胎服务的缺乏。然而，提供堕胎服务的非医院设施的数量增加了4%，而专科诊所为提供了1988年堕胎总数的4%。
A 1989 survey by The Alan Guttmacher Institute shows that 1.6 million abortions were performed in the United States in 1988, a number that has remained relatively unchanged since 1980. More than 98 percent of abortions in 1987-1988 were performed in metropolitan areas. Although 51 percent of metropolitan counties have no provider of abortion services, 93 percent of nonmetropolitan counties are without a provider. The lack of abortion services in nonmetropolitan areas has been intensified by a 13 percent reduction since 1985 in the number of hospitals that offer abortion services. The number of nonhospital facilities providing abortion services increased by four percent, however, and specialized clinics provided 64 percent of all abortions performed in 1988.
