Looking at the Worldwide Homicide Rate in Data Studio
In this post I wanted to look at the Worldwide Homicide Rate, and also put together a Data Studio report that could work both as an interactive, live report and as a static PDF.
The multi-page report below looks at the level of murder by country. The data is taken from Wikipedia’s List of countries by intentional homicide rate.
You can also download the report as a PDF by clicking on the image below.
If you’re curious, these are the countries with the highest levels of murder.
And here is a top ten list of countries with the highest murder rates.
| Country | Homicide Rate | Number of Homicides | Most recent data |
| El Salvador | 82.84 | 5,257 | 2016 |
| Honduras | 56.52 | 5,150 | 2016 |
| Venezuela | 56.33 | 17,778 | 2016 |
| Virgin Islands | 49.26 | 52 | 2012 |
| Jamaica | 47.01 | 1,354 | 2016 |
| Lesotho | 41.25 | 897 | 2015 |
| Belize | 37.6 | 138 | 2016 |
| Saint Vincent and the Grenadines | 36.46 | 40 | 2016 |
| Saint Kitts and Nevis | 34.23 | 18 | 2012 |
| South Africa | 33.97 | 19,016 | 2016 |
Hope you enjoyed (if that’s the right word) reading and taking a look at the worldwide homicide rate in Data Studio.
