Injuries - Where do they happen?

Where do most injuries happen, in the home or away from the home? Does anyone know what percent of injuries happen in the home and away from the home?
Thanks in advance

Injuries happen more in the home than anywhere else. I looked over the internet and could not find anything. More medical is definetly at home because we spend more time there than any where else. Trauma is also at the home, but I bet that has a lower rate at home than the medical side.

Usually at home..dont know the exact percent
at home:
cutting your finger to the bone with a knife and the skin hanging.
the radio dropping in the tub and getting electrocuted to death
Stubbing your toe on a wall, and the nail falling off.

outside:
getting hit by a car in the street
having your leg decapitated by a rottweiler
getting struck by lightning
