What this measure is

Traffic crashes in which at least one person died within 30 days, per 100,000 residents per year, for the years you choose under the colour scale (2015–2024 to start): the crashes in those years divided by the sum of each year's population. Crashes are counted where they happened, so places with busy highways and few residents read high; the rate is per resident, not per mile driven. Road deaths rose after 2020, so an average over years on both sides of 2020 blends two periods. White stripes over the colour mark low reliability: fewer than 10 fatal crashes in the years chosen (30 for ZIP codes).
