Rate denominator: the FBI’s own population estimate for the agencies that reported, published alongside the counts. It is not the state’s resident population, and it is the same denominator the FBI uses to compute its own rates.

How to read this

  • Property crime is the FBI’s category: burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, and arson. It is the FBI’s own aggregation, not a sum we computed.
  • Property crime rates are roughly an order of magnitude higher than violent crime rates, so the two columns here are not on the same scale and a state can sit high in one and low in the other.
  • The coverage column is the share of the state’s population living in a reporting agency’s jurisdiction. Below 90%, a rate describes a substantially different population from a state near 100%.
  • Property crime is reported to police at a lower rate than violent crime, and whether it is reported depends heavily on whether the loss was insured. Differences between states partly reflect that.
