  • 1 The figures shown in this column for the offense of rape were reported using only the revised Uniform Crime Reporting definition of rape. See the data declaration for further explanation.
  • 2 The FBI does not publish arson data unless it receives data from either the agency or the state for all 12 months of the calendar year.
  • 3 Because of changes in the state/local agency's reporting practices, figures are not comparable to previous years' data.
