Assignment
[edit]Depending on the study, researchers have suggested 1 in 2,000 people have some form of synesthesia, while others have reported 1 in 300 or even as many as 1 in 23. One problem with statistics is that some individuals will not self-classify as they do not realize that their perceptions are different from those of everyone else.[30]
Grapheme-color, chromesthesia, or anything color-related, appear to be the most common forms of synesthesia. Some of the rarest are reported to be auditory-tactile, mirror-touch, and lexical-gustatory.[citation needed]
Observations:
As I was looking for the articles, I found it to be more complex than I expected after doing the training. The training taught me about how wikipedia works and how I should use it but it did not prepare me to see how it is actually always in use.

Possible New Information
[edit]For new informations I was thinking that I will add more precise numbers to the different types of Synesthesia, such as most common from is Grapheme-colour covering roughly 64% of all cases of Synesthesia.

New: Grapheme-color, chromesthesia, or anything color-related, appear to be the most common forms of synaesthesia, they have a prevalence rate of 64.4% in the synaesthesia population. Some studies have found that colour related grapheme can account for 86%. Next, time related words-colour synaesthesia with a prevalence rate of 22%-62%. Music-colour is also prevalent at 18%, some studies found that music-colour was shown in 41% of patients. Some of the rarest are reported to be auditory-tactile, mirror-touch, and lexical-gustatory.

I have found an article that might be helpful for you. It provides search on studies found regarding synesthesia. as well as, it provides you with the most common age groups facing sysnesthesia.
