I have that Senior Citizen Gut; lucky I am over 6 feet tall. But, that being said I My area that is predominantly Hispanic with Asian, Black and some Whites.

From observation I my local area I can say it is the Hispanic and Blacks that have large number of what I call overweight Adults and Kids.
The Asian and Whites tend to be skinner.
Don't know if the issue is Cultural, Ethnic or Economic but they are wagging the Statistics in my area.
