* Rates per 100,000 population. Beginning in 2021, single-race population estimates are used for rate calculations. For prior years, bridged-race population estimates are used. When comparing the 2021 rates by race/ethnicity to prior years, differences may be due to the change in denominator and should be interpreted with caution (see Technical Notes).
