Version 1. This includes only major theorized contributors to crime, such as a large percentage of young men deploying to war (so not all wars are included). I recognize this is incomplete. Please include suggested additions or changes (that are thought to have a major impact) on the talk page. I will not be able to check this often, but I will update this over time.
Notes:
- Data prior to 1933 are corrected per Eckberg 1995 (reference below). As stated in https://www2.census.gov/library/publications/1975/compendia/hist_stats_colonial-1970/hist_stats_colonial-1970p1-chH.pdf: "Data for the entire United States were not available until 1933. For the years prior to 1933 this series includes deaths only for the death registration States of the respective years. For 1900, 10 states and the District of Columbia are included, comprising 26 percent of the population of the United States. As States were added, the registration area gradually grew to include approximately 50 percent of the United states population in 1910, about 80 percent in 1920, and the entire United States in 1933.”
- CDC data were retroactively recalculated using new 2000 age-adjustment guidelines for 1950-1998 data. As a result, this data may not match the original sources. Please see references below.
- After the Bureau of Labor Statistics introduced the Consumer Price Index, inflation could be calculated starting in 1914.
