Low birth weight (LBW, <2500 g) is an important risk factor for perinatal mortality and morbidity. We performed the first geospatial study of LBW in Singapore, with focus on the public sector and analysis of the national planning areas. ⋯ There was no evidence of clustering of LBW rates among planning areas in Singapore that would indicate inequitable distribution of health resources among planning areas. The 2 areas showing the highest rates of LBW infants were Outram and Bukit Merah. We recommend targeted health interventions and outreach programmes to encourage antenatal visits in these areas.
