The national average is 10.5 gun deaths per 100,000 residents. But that number varies widely from state to state.

The Kaiser Family Foundation assembled a table of statistics from the CDC on 2015 mortality rates from firearms in each state. Kaiser combined various firearm-related causes of death, including assault by firearm, police shootings, suicide by firearm, and accidental discharges.

Some highlights:

• States with the highest rate include Alaska (23.4) and Louisiana (20.5). Alaska doesn't require residents to have a permit for carrying concealed weapons, while Louisiana does (but only for certain handguns and rifles).

• States with the lowest rate include Massachusetts (3.0) and Hawaii (3.6). Both states have some of the strictest gun control laws in the country.
