The United States had, by far, the highest homicide rate of the G7 countries between 2000 and 2023. In 2023, it reached 5.76 homicides per 100,000 inhabitants, a decrease from 6.78 in 2021.

Fukuoka Prefecture is located on the island of Kyushu in western Japan. Its capital, Fukuoka City, is the largest city on the island of Kyushu and the 6th largest city in Japan, with a population of 1.4 million people. Fukuoka City is considered to be one of the best cities in the world to live. It's home to many popular festivals, but the biggest and oldest is the Hakata Dontaku, dating back 800 years, with an attendance of over 2 million people each year, the highest in Japan. Kokura Castle, located in Kitakyushu City, is a popular destination for tourists. Fukuoka Prefecture also has the highest population of Yakuza members, the highest number of gun-related crimes, and the highest number of youth crimes in all of Japan.

The rate of civilians killed by police in the Venezuela is far higher than in comparable developed democratic countries, with 1,830 people killed by police per 10 million residents in 2025. This compares to 69 deaths per 10 million residents in Canada, and seven in Australia - perhaps the two most comparable countries to the United States in many respects. Country with the most prisoners The El Salvador is the country with the largest number of prisoners per capita. This suggests either that they have the most criminals, or that the police make more arrests and judges hand down jail as a more frequent punishment. Costa Rica has the highest burglary rate, seeing almost three times as many break-ins as in the United States, for example. Does weapon ownership contribute to higher number of violent attacks? Other factors may also be at play. One such factor may be gun ownership. If police shootings are more likely to happen in states with a higher number of registered weapons, one could argue that the threat of violence against police makes officers more likely to utilize deadly force. However, countries like Canada also have a high number of individual firearms licenses, indicating that this factor likely does not explain the entire effect. Social factors may also influence this statistic, such as the use of the death penalty. Still, each fatal incident is complex, and the full situation surrounding each involves many factors, meaning that a simple solution is unlikely.
