Diabetes, or diabetes mellitus, refers to a group of metabolic disorders that result in chronic high blood sugar levels. Diabetes can lead to serious health complications, such as cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, and stroke, and is now among the top ten leading causes of death worldwide. Prevalence Diabetes is a global problem affecting many countries. China currently has the largest number of diabetics worldwide, with some *** million people suffering from the disease. However, the highest prevalence of diabetes is found in Pakistan, followed by the Marshall Islands and Kuwait. Rates of diabetes have increased in many countries in recent years, as have rates of obesity, one of the leading risk factors for the disease. Outlook It is predicted that diabetes will continue to be a problem in the future. Africa is expected to see a *** percent increase in the number of diabetics in the region from 2024 to 2050, while North America and the Caribbean are expected to see an increase of ** percent. In 2050, China is predicted to be the country with the highest number of diabetics worldwide, with the United States accounting for the fourth-highest number.
This dataset contains information on the total proportion of adults diagnosed with diabetes, collected from the system of health-related telephone surveys, the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), conducted in more than 400,000 patients, from 50 states in the US, the District of Columbia and three US territories.

Diabetes prevalence (% of population ages 20 to 79) in United States was reported at 10.7 % in 2021, according to the World Bank collection of development indicators, compiled from officially recognized sources. United States - Diabetes prevalence (% of population ages 20 to 79) - actual values, historical data, forecasts and projections were sourced from the World Bank on June of 2025.
This dataset contains number and percentage of diabetes patients in the US during 2013 grouped by ZIP code. The prevalence and incidence of diabetes have increased in the United States in recent decades, no studies have systematically examined long-term, national trends in the prevalence and incidence of diagnosed diabetes. The prevalence of diabetes increased substantially between 2000 and 2007, mainly because there are more patients with a new diagnosis each year than those who die. The increase observed by 2007 almost reached the World Health Organization prediction for 2030.
This statistic shows the percentage of the U.S. population aged 20 years and over with diabetes in periods between 1988 and 2018. In the 2015-2018 period, there were some estimated ** * percent of the U.S. population aged 20 years and over with diabetes.
It was estimated that as of 2022 around 24.4 million people in the United States had been diagnosed with diabetes. The number of people diagnosed with diabetes in the U.S. has increased in recent years and the disease is now a major health issue. Diabetes is now the eighth leading cause of death in the United States, accounting for three percent of all deaths.
What is prediabetes? A person is considered to have prediabetes if their blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. As of 2021, it was estimated that around 53 million men and 44 million women in the United States had prediabetes. However, according to the CDC, around 80 percent of these people do not know they have this condition. Not only does prediabetes increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, but also increases the risk of heart disease and stroke. The states with the highest share of adults who had ever been told they have prediabetes are Hawaii, California, and Alaska.
The prevalence of diabetes in the United States As of 2022, around 8.4 percent of adults in the United States had been diagnosed with diabetes, an increase from six percent in the year 2000. Diabetes is much more common among older adults, with almost a quarter of those aged 65 years and older diagnosed with diabetes, compared to just three percent of those aged 18 to 44 years.

The average for 2021 based on 20 countries was 8.73 percent. The highest value was in Mexico: 16.9 percent and the lowest value was in Ecuador: 4.4 percent. The indicator is available from 2000 to 2021. Below is a chart for all countries where data are available.
Population-based county-level estimates for diagnosed (DDP), undiagnosed (UDP), and total diabetes prevalence (TDP) were acquired from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) for the years 2004-2012 (Evaluation 2017). Prevalence estimates were calculated using a two-stage approach. The first stage used National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data to predict high fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels (≥126 mg/dL) and/or hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) levels (≥6.5% [48 mmol/mol]) based on self-reported demographic and behavioral characteristics (Dwyer-Lindgren, Mackenbach et al. 2016). This model was then applied to Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data to impute high FPG and/or A1C status for each BRFSS respondent (Dwyer-Lindgren, Mackenbach et al. 2016). The second stage used the imputed BRFSS data to fit a series of small area models, which were used to predict the county-level prevalence of each of the diabetes-related outcomes (Dwyer-Lindgren, Mackenbach et al. 2016). Diagnosed diabetes was defined as the proportion of adults (age 20+ years) who reported a previous diabetes diagnosis, represented as an age-standardized prevalence percentage. Undiagnosed diabetes was defined as proportion of adults (age 20+ years) who have a high FPG or HbA1C but did not report a previous diagnosis of diabetes. Total diabetes was defined as the proportion of adults (age 20+ years) who reported a previous diabetes diagnosis and/or had a high FPG/HbA1C. The age-standardized diabetes prevalence (%) was used as the outcome. The EQI was constructed for 2000-2005 for all US counties and is composed of five domains (air, water, built, land, and sociodemographic), each composed of variables to represent the environmental quality of that domain. Domain-specific EQIs were developed using principal components analysis (PCA) to reduce these variables within each domain while the overall EQI was constructed from a second PCA from these individual domains (L. C. Messer et al., 2014). To account for differences in environment across rural and urban counties, the overall and domain-specific EQIs were stratified by rural urban continuum codes (RUCCs) (U.S. Department of Agriculture, 2015).
