What crime statistics do the FBI collect?

The FBI collects a variety of crime statistics through its Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, which includes data on violent crimes such as murder, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault, as well as property crimes like burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, and arson. Additionally, the FBI gathers information on hate crimes, human trafficking, and law enforcement officer fatalities. The National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) further expands this data by providing detailed information about each crime incident, including the context and characteristics of victims and offenders. These statistics are used to analyze crime trends and inform public policy.
