Title

Suicide Rates by County for Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah

Subject

This map covers information regarding the rate of suicide in relation to the total rate of deaths in each county in Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah between 1999 and 2019.

Description

This map shows rates of suicide by county and we can see an increase in the rates of suicides in the middle of the map in areas where the states are touching and toward the north west corner of Utah. This is important information to see if there are any correlating factors such as age over 60, poverty level, or PM 2.5 level.
