Between December 2020 and April 2021, for both women and men, COVID-19 vaccination coverage decreased moving down the urban-rural continuum. However, women generally had a higher vaccination rate. This gap was widest in adults living in large fringe metropolitan areas where 48.8 percent of women compared to 41.8 percent of men were vaccinated. This statistic shows the percentage of adults in the U.S. vaccinated against COVID-19 from December 2020 to April 2021, by their gender and their county's six-level urban-rural classification.
