A table shows the rate of abortion in the U.S., as reported to the CDC from 2012 to 2021. The rate is calculated per 1,000 women aged 14 to 44 years old. It was highest in 2012, with a rate of 13.1 and 699 thousand reported abortions. In 2021, the rate was 11.6, with 626 thousand abortions reported. The data excludes California, District of Columbia, Maryland, New Hampshire, and New Jersey, as those states did not report this data to the CDC.
