    AbstractThis article presents a comparison of the cancer incidence and mortality rates for the populations of the metropolitan areas of Los Angeles, Atlanta, and Nashville. The results reveal that cancer of the lung, prostate, breast, and cervix should be of major concern to all, but especially to blacks and residents of Nashville. The findings have specific implications for the prevention of cancer in the black population of the United States.
