New Jersey. New Jersey autism rates appear to be the highest in the country reaching. According to recent statistics released by the CDC, 1 in 23 boys are diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders within the state. Coincidentally, or maybe not so coincidentally New Jersey is known to have the most available resources and autism treatment programs in the country. It is unclear whether the concentration of autism services is a result of a larger autistic population in need of those services, or if, at least in part, the autistic population is larger due to those services. Many families have moved to New Jersey in order to seek the best and most varied resources for their children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders.

We have absolutely no way to tell which countries have more Autistic people.

Currently in the US 1 in 68 children will be diagnosed with Autism, but bear in mind this is because in the US there is better awareness, less social stigma, and more procedures in place to identify autism in children - as it is Autism may actually be under-diagnosed. Until all Autistic people have access to diagnosis we can't know how many of us there are, we can estimate only.

In many countries autism is well known and it is easy to be diagnosed - for example in the UK it is law that someone have access to diagnosis, verses the US where a person may not be able to afford diagnosis or find an expert to diagnose autism. In less developed countries however autism may be practically unknown and diagnosis close to impossible, thus we'd have no way to know how many Autistic people there may be in those countries.

The current rate of diagnosis in children is 1 in 68 children being autistic.

This statistic is about diagnosis, you have to consider that many children will not be diagnosed because of lack of access to services or stigma preventing parents seeking diagnosis. As it is we have no accurate way of determining how many Autistic people there are in the US or globally.

What is incidence rate for autism?

Current diagnosis rate is 1 in 68 children in the US.Further statistics are harder to find, there's also question as to how correct the above statistic is. In theory Autism is under-diagnosed due to cultural and social factors such as stigma preventing parents seeking diagnosis, people avoiding diagnosis to avoid discrimination, and poverty preventing access to diagnosis. As it is we don't really know what the true rate of Autism is.

What are the chances of being born with autism?

I think it is about 1 in every 150 kids. however, it is more common in males, but i am not sure why. It is FOUR times more likely in males, however Autism affects people of ALL racial, ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds. Luckily the amount of child with autism has gone down. It use to be 1 in 150 but, now it's 1 in 110. Not much of a difference but, it counts.


Do 1 out of 150 people in the US have autism?

No, the CDC put the number of children diagnosed as being 1 in 68 which reflects the rate of autism on the whole. This also only accounts for those who are diagnosed, there may be greater numbers of people not diagnosed.

Is there a high rate of autism and Asperger's Syndrome?

It's relative. It depends on your opinion about what constitutes a high rate. The vast majority of people do not have autism or Asperger's Syndrome. It occurs in less than 1% of the population. There is a higher rate of cerebral palsy, but a lower rate of multiple sclerosis.

How to solve the population problem in Egypt?

i think the government should increase tax for couples having more than one child . This will help reduce population in Egypt because it will discourage couples to have more children because it will cost more to raise children and will lead to a decrease in population because people will be discouraged to have more children and the population its self will decrease because less children will be born and with the current life expectancy rate the population will decrease which will help solve many problems like high food prices and high housing prices and will lead to an increase in income . as for increasing tax rate i suggest that if more than one child is born the government should increase tax on both couples by 10% for example the current tax rate in Egypt is 20% if two children are born the tax will be 30% and if four children are born it will be 40%


What percentage of people have Autism ?

Autism is currently at a rate of 1 in 68 - this is according to the CDC and true as of July 2016.Note this is autism diagnosis, the rates of diagnosis have increased but there is absolutely no evidence that Autistic people are increasing in numbers - even if there were it could be explained simply by the fact Autistic people are more likely to have Autistic children. The idea that this figure is scary and evidence autism is on the increase is false, there is no so-called 'autism epidemic'.

Is Autism autosomal?

Hi! That is a very difficult question to answer as there are a huge number of genes that cause Autism and there are likely some that haven't been discovered. There is a sex link with Autism (it affects boys at a rate of 1:42 and girls at a rate of 1:189) but despite this most scientists will try to make it easier to understand they will tell you that it is autosomal.
