Abstract: Geographic disparities exist for colorectal cancer (CRC) in the United States (US). Area-level socioeconomic status (SES) may influence CRC outcomes through multiple pathways, including by influencing screening adherence. We completed a systematic review and meta-analysis of area-level SES and CRC incidence, mortality, and screening among US individuals.
