What is this Indicator?
This indicator shows the death rate of youth (13 - 19 years) per 100,000 population due to suicide. |
| Why this is important: Suicide is a major, preventable public health problem. Young people with mental health problems such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, or insomnia are at higher risk for suicidal thoughts. Teens going through major life changes (parents' divorce, moving, a parent leaving home due to military service or parental separation, financial changes) and those who are victims of bullying are at greater risk of suicidal thoughts. According to the CDC, among high school students in the United States, females were more likely to report having considered, planned, and attempted suicide compared to males (considered suicide: 17.4% versus 10.5%, planned suicide: 13.2% versus 8.6%, and attempted suicide: 8.1% versus 4.6%, respectively) in 2009. |
| Technical Note: The distribution is based on data from 67 Florida counties. Use caution when interpreting rates based on small numbers of events. Mortality rates are considered unstable if they are based on fewer than 5 events or if the denominator (population at risk) is fewer than 20. An erratic trend line illustrates this instability. Use of this tool is for analytical and statistical purposes only. The following counties had fewer than 5 events: Baker, Flagler, Nassau, St. Johns, and Volusia County. |
