Los Angeles

Approximately 778 homicides - Victims in the last 12 months - The Homicide Report - Los Angeles Times (latimes.com)

California, between 1900-2000 people die a year.

United Sates, 20,726 - The number of gun deaths, excluding suicides, in 2021.

The total includes murders, accidents, and homicides that were ruled justifiable. It’s a slight increase over the total in 2020 and a continuation of the trend of rising gun deaths that accelerated during the pandemic. The annual total is the highest recorded by the Gun Violence Archive since the nonprofit’s founding in 2014. [Gun Violence Archive]

693 - The number of mass shooting incidents in the United States in 2021.

When defined as four or more people shot, 2021’s total is 13.4 percent higher than 2020. The shootings have claimed 702 lives and injured 2,844 people. Though mass public shootings like the Boulder, Colorado, supermarket shooting; the metro Atlanta spa shootings; and the San Jose transit shooting garnered intense media attention, most mass shootings disproportionately affect Black and brown communities and receive relatively little coverage. [Gun Violence Archive]

56 - United Sates, 56 people died a day in 2021.

22 - The number of people killed in school shooting incidents in 2021.

At least 80 others have been injured. This year’s total amounts to the most casualties from school shootings since 2018, the year a gunman killed 17 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, and another killed 10 at Sante Fe High School in Texas. [Gun Violence Archive]

18.8 million - The estimated number of guns sold in 2021.

The number includes 11.3 million handguns and 7.5 million long guns. Based on data from the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, gun purchases have declined in 2021 compared to 2020. Even still, this year remains on track to record the second-highest number of estimated guns purchased since 2000. [The Trace]
