The states, side by side

All 51 jurisdictions — the fifty states and the District of Columbia — with the figure each topic leads with. Every number links to the page it came from, and every name to that state’s own entry.

Every topic with a page for a state, one row each

One figure from each topic that has a page for a state, 13 in all, from different publishers, counted differently, over different periods. Read down a column rather than across a row: nothing here adds, divides or ranks one against another. On a phone the first three show, and each state’s own entry has the rest.

All 51 rows. Sorted by state name, A to Z.

The violent crime rate is offenses reported to police per 100,000 residents of the population the reporting agencies covered — not the state’s population, and the coverage column is the share it was. Two states are only comparable with those shares beside them. The imprisonment rate counts people held under a state’s own correctional authority. Federal money per resident is obligated against a place of performance in the state, which is where an award is administered rather than where it reaches people; one agency running something national from one office puts that whole figure in one state.
