The Wikipedia article on autism epidemiology is well researched and includes results from studies in 10 countries. Unfortunately, factors such as changes in diagnostic criteria and directed screening for ASDs are not consistent from one country to another, or even among studies in a single country, and there is a wide range of variation in the data.
