    They say anywhere on earth, not just England. So China and India, which both have a way higher population than the US, have fewer serial killers.

      China and India are also rather substantially less likely to portray a serial killer as a notable scandal deserving of infamy.

      AFAIK they also have a less rights-respecting criminal prosecution system, meaning their native serial killers are more likely to be incarcerated or executed if identifed.

      I was referring to the image in this post, which is where the absolute numbers I was referring to are mentioned, and there they are comparing the US and England.
