This chart shows the suicide rate (per 100,000 persons) in California between 1999 and 2017 for 5 separate age groups.
Data source: Multiple Cause of Death, 1999-2017 dataset from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
I constructed the suicide rate using the cause of death codes described here. I filled in any gaps in each trend line using linear interpolation.
