Changes in suicide rates in the United States from 2022 to 2023
The overall age-adjusted suicide rate increased from 2003 (10.8 deaths per 100,000 population) to 2018 (14.2) but did not significantly change between 2018 and 2023 (14.1). From 2022 to 2023, the suicide rate increased for females age 75 and older and decreased for males age 75 and older. The age-adjusted suicide rate significantly changed from 2022 to 2023 for five states: increasing for Arkansas and decreasing for North Dakota, Iowa, Connecticut, and Arizona.
