Understanding Crime Statistics
Crime affects every community differently and understanding the data behind it matters. We pull official records from law enforcement agencies to give you a clear, reliable picture of criminal activity across cities, counties, and states.
Whether you're moving, researching for a project, or just curious about crime in your area, our site helps you explore the numbers on violent crimes, property crimes, and more, all in one place.
How to Use This Database
Looking for crime data in your area? It's easy to get started. Just pick a state, city, or county, and we'll show you crime rates, totals, and trends over time.
Each page includes key stats and how they compare to national averages, from violent crime to property offenses. It's all broken down in simple charts and tables.
Our goal is to make this information clear and useful, whether you're browsing out of curiosity or using it to make informed decisions.
About Our Data Sources
We rely on real data from real law enforcement agencies, primarily through the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) program, which compiles reports from over 18,000 police departments nationwide.
All data goes through checks for consistency and accuracy before it's published. We update the site regularly as new reports become available, usually once per year.
While crime data isn't perfect (and not every agency reports the same way), it's still one of the best tools for spotting trends and comparing crime levels across locations.
