No stats at hand, but here’s some wiki:

“In the United States it is the second most common method, behind firearms,[11] and is by far the most common method for those in psychiatric wards and hospitals.[12] Hanging accounts for a greater percentage of suicides among younger Americans than among older ones.[13] Differences exist among ethnic groups; research suggests that hanging is the most common method among Chinese and Japanese Americans.[14] Hanging is also a frequently used method for those in custody, in several countries.[1]”
