Gun death and violence in the United States by state
text:
This is a list of US states by gun deaths and rates of violence. In 2021, there were 26,000 gun suicides and 21,000 gun homicides, together making up a sixth of deaths from external causes. Gun deaths make up about half of all suicides, but over 80% of homicides. Gun deaths in 2021 rose to levels not seen since the 1990s, but remained below rates of the 1970s. A 2022 study found that guns were the cause of more years lost than any other source of traumatic injury, including motor vehicles.
