Using the CDC Wide-ranging ONline Data for Epidemiologic Research (WONDER) data set, this study identified methamphetamine-related deaths among US residents aged 15 or older from 2005 to 2023 and calculated mortality rates over time for the 9 US Census Divisions. 

From 2005 to 2023, methamphetamine-related deaths increased substantially across all 9 US Census Divisions, although with variability between regions. The highest mortality rates in 2023 were in the Pacific, East South Central, and Mountain divisions of the country.
