Report on crime in the United States produced annually by the Federal Bureau for Investigation (FBI) and made freely available on their website. The report collates data from approximately 17,000 law enforcement jurisdictions and taking account of geographic and demographic factors identifies and examines trends in crime from a national perspective. The sections of the report include an introduction to the crime reporting program, a breakdown of the types of offences reported and offences cleared, an examination of number of arrests made for each category of crime and the types of persons arrested, and an assessment of the deployment of law enforcement personnel. Each section utilises a range of tables and charts to portray the statistical data. Reports are available annually back to 1995.
