Few population-based studies have assessed health outcomes and health care access and utilization among youth in the U.S. Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Data are from an island population-based sample of 337 youth ages 10 to 17 who participated in the Asthma, Depression, and Anxiety in Puerto Rican Youth Study. In-person interviews with youth and caregivers assessed self-rated physical and mental health, weight status, diagnosed health conditions, and health care access and utilization. Island Puerto Rican youth report slightly worse physical and mental health than mainland youth. Puerto Rican youth have high rates of asthma, headaches, and stomachaches. Six in ten island youth use public health insurance and one in three regularly receive care at the emergency department. Island Puerto Rican youth are at a health disadvantage compared with mainland youth. Public health research is needed to fully understand and combat health challenges among Puerto Rican youth.
