Overview
- The prevalence of schizophrenia is 300 to 700 per 100,000 (0.3%-0.7%) of the overall population.[1]
- It occurs 1.4 times more frequently in males than females and typically appears earlier in men[14]—the peak ages of onset are 25 years for males and 27 years for females.[174]
- Onset in childhood is much rarer, as is onset in middle or old age.[175][176]
- Despite the prior belief that schizophrenia occurs at similar rates worldwide, its frequency varies across the world, within countries, and at the local and neighborhood level.[5][177][178][179]
- This variation has been estimated to be fivefold.[4]
- It causes approximately one percent of worldwide disability adjusted life years and resulted in 20,000 deaths in 2010.[180]
- The rate of schizophrenia varies up to threefold depending on how it is defined.[9][14]
- In 2000, the World Health Organization found the percentage of people affected and the number of new cases that develop each year is roughly similar around the world, with age-standardized prevalence per 100,000 ranging from 343 in Africa to 544 in Japan and Oceania for men, and from 378 in Africa to 527 in Southeastern Europe for women.[181]
- About 1.1% of adults have schizophrenia in the United States.
