Japan has more suicides
- panny 10mo ago>As of 2025, Japan's suicide rate is reported to be 15.3 per 100,000 people, which is lower than the United States' rate of 16.1 per 100,000 people, despite the common stereotype that Japan has a high suicide rate. This marks a reversal from earlier decades when Japan consistently had higher rates than the United States. https://www.reddit.com/r/UnpopularFacts/comments/1ke0fhb/as_of_2025_japan_actually_has_a_lower_suicide/ https://www.reddit.com/r/UnpopularFacts/comments/1ke0fhb/as_...
