Summary: From 2009 to 2016, the prevalence of hypertension substantially increased in rural southwestern China, with awareness and control rates also rising. Individuals with higher education levels had higher awareness and control rates, but there were no significant differences in improvement among different education levels. Both awareness and control rates increased in individuals with high income, while only awareness rate increased in individuals with low income.
