Violent and property crime by state

Estimated violent crime and property crime offense counts, and the FBI's own reporting-jurisdiction population, for the nation, the District of Columbia, and all 50 states, 1979 through the newest year available (2025), for interstate comparison with Idaho. Sub-offense breakdowns (murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, rape, robbery, aggravated assault; burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft) are included for every year. Violent and property crime rates per 100,000 population are not stored in this dataset; Understand Idaho computes them from these counts and this population. These are FBI Uniform Crime Reporting estimates, not the same collection system or offense definitions as the Idaho State Police's Group A National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) totals shown elsewhere on this site.

Crime in the United States, by State (Table 5) and Estimated Crime Data, 1979-2025

Caveats

  • 2024 and 2025 figures are FBI estimates, not final; the long-run series is revised in later releases.
  • The FBI revised its definition of rape in 2013. The by-type breakdown stores one rape category per year, labeled "Rape (revised definition)" for 2013 onward and "Rape (legacy definition)" for 1979-2012; 2013-2016 rows have both figures published, and this dataset keeps the revised one, consistent with the FBI's own violent-crime totals for those years. The two definitions are not comparable across the 2013 boundary.
  • The FBI's 2021 transition to NIBRS-only collection lowered participation, so 2022-2025 estimates mix NIBRS and Summary Reporting System (SRS) submissions from agencies that had not yet transitioned. For 1996-2002, some state and local agencies' figures are the FBI's own estimate from that agency's prior-year total and that year's regional crime trend, for agencies that could not provide complete data.
  • The FBI's long-run estimated-crime file has no United States row for 2017-2020, though state rows and a District of Columbia row are present. No national figure is stored for those four years; Understand Idaho does not sum the states to create one.
  • Puerto Rico is excluded; the District of Columbia is included as its own geography.
  • For 2014 and 2024, violent crime and property crime offense counts come from that year's own "Crime in the United States" Table 5 report, not the long-run estimated-crime file. The long-run file gives a different figure for nearly every state in both years: a difference in revision basis between the annual report snapshot and the FBI's separately, continuously revised long-run series, not an error. Idaho's and the nation's alternate figures for those years are recorded below as disagreements, rather than listing every state. The offense-by-type breakdowns, by contrast, come from the long-run file for every year including 2014 and 2024, so they will not sum to this dataset's own Table 5 totals for those two years.
  • The UCR reporting population is the FBI's own population estimate for the jurisdictions reporting in that year, the denominator the FBI's own published crime rates use. It is not the Census Bureau's population estimate and will not match it.
  • Violent and property crime rates per 100,000 population are not published for every year in the FBI's sources used here. Understand Idaho computes both rates for every year from the offense counts and the UCR reporting population above, and labels them as computed with both inputs cited. Table 5's own 2014 and 2024 rates, printed directly by the FBI, are kept below as disagreements rather than discarded.

Where sources disagree

  • Violent crime offenses (FBI estimate), Idaho, 2014: FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program, Estimated Crime Data, 1979-2025 publishes 3,439. This dataset's 2014 Idaho violent crime count (3,468) is from "Crime in the United States, 2014" Table 5. The FBI's long-run estimated-crime file gives 3,439 for the same state and year, 29 fewer. The two disagree by a similar small amount for nearly every state in 2014 and 2024; see the dataset caveats.
  • Property crime offenses (FBI estimate), Idaho, 2014: FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program, Estimated Crime Data, 1979-2025 publishes 30,440. This dataset's 2014 Idaho property crime count (30,316) is from "Crime in the United States, 2014" Table 5. The FBI's long-run estimated-crime file gives 30,440 for the same state and year, 124 more.
  • Violent crime offenses (FBI estimate), Idaho, 2024: FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program, Estimated Crime Data, 1979-2025 publishes 4,717. This dataset's 2024 Idaho violent crime count (4,616) is from "Crime in the United States, 2024" Table 5. The FBI's long-run estimated-crime file gives 4,717 for the same state and year, 101 more.
  • Property crime offenses (FBI estimate), Idaho, 2024: FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program, Estimated Crime Data, 1979-2025 publishes 14,912. This dataset's 2024 Idaho property crime count (14,737) is from "Crime in the United States, 2024" Table 5. The FBI's long-run estimated-crime file gives 14,912 for the same state and year, 175 more.
  • Violent crime offenses (FBI estimate), United States, 2014: FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program, Estimated Crime Data, 1979-2025 publishes 1.15 million. This dataset's 2014 national violent crime count (1,165,383) is from "Crime in the United States, 2014" Table 1. The FBI's long-run estimated-crime file gives 1,153,022 for the same year, 12,361 fewer.
  • Property crime offenses (FBI estimate), United States, 2014: FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program, Estimated Crime Data, 1979-2025 publishes 8.21 million. This dataset's 2014 national property crime count (8,277,829) is from "Crime in the United States, 2014" Table 1. The FBI's long-run estimated-crime file gives 8,209,010 for the same year, 68,819 fewer.
  • Violent crime offenses (FBI estimate), United States, 2024: FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program, Estimated Crime Data, 1979-2025 publishes 1.23 million. This dataset's 2024 national violent crime count (1,221,345) is from "Crime in the United States, 2024" Table 2. The FBI's long-run estimated-crime file gives 1,234,163 for the same year, 12,818 more. The two sources' 2024 national property crime counts, unlike every other pairing checked here, agree at 5,989,723.
  • Violent crime rate, Idaho, 2014: Federal Bureau of Investigation, Crime in the United States, 2014, Table 5 publishes 212.2. Understand Idaho instead computes the violent crime rate from the violent crime offense count and the UCR reporting population, both from the FBI's long-run estimated-crime file, which disagrees with Table 5's own 2014 count for Idaho (see the violent crime offenses disagreement above). The computed rate differs from Table 5's printed rate for the same reason.
  • Property crime rate, Idaho, 2014: Federal Bureau of Investigation, Crime in the United States, 2014, Table 5 publishes 1,854.8. Understand Idaho instead computes the property crime rate from the property crime offense count and the UCR reporting population, both from the FBI's long-run estimated-crime file, which carries later revisions than Table 5's 2014 snapshot.
  • Violent crime rate, Idaho, 2024: Federal Bureau of Investigation, Crime in the United States, 2024, Table 5 publishes 230.6. Understand Idaho instead computes the violent crime rate from the violent crime offense count and the UCR reporting population, both from the FBI's long-run estimated-crime file, which carries later revisions than Table 5's 2024 snapshot.
  • Property crime rate, Idaho, 2024: Federal Bureau of Investigation, Crime in the United States, 2024, Table 5 publishes 736.3. Understand Idaho instead computes the property crime rate from the property crime offense count and the UCR reporting population, both from the FBI's long-run estimated-crime file, which carries later revisions than Table 5's 2024 snapshot.
  • Violent crime rate, United States, 2014: Federal Bureau of Investigation, Crime in the United States, 2014, Table 1 publishes 365.5. Understand Idaho instead computes the violent crime rate from the violent crime offense count and the UCR reporting population, both from the FBI's long-run estimated-crime file, which carries later revisions than Table 1's 2014 snapshot.
  • Property crime rate, United States, 2014: Federal Bureau of Investigation, Crime in the United States, 2014, Table 1 publishes 2,596.1. Understand Idaho instead computes the property crime rate from the property crime offense count and the UCR reporting population, both from the FBI's long-run estimated-crime file, which carries later revisions than Table 1's 2014 snapshot.
  • Violent crime rate, United States, 2024: Federal Bureau of Investigation, Crime in the United States, 2024, Table 2 publishes 359.1. Understand Idaho instead computes the violent crime rate from the violent crime offense count and the UCR reporting population, both from the FBI's long-run estimated-crime file, which disagrees with Table 2's own 2024 national count (see the violent crime offenses disagreement above).
  • Property crime rate, United States, 2024: Federal Bureau of Investigation, Crime in the United States, 2024, Table 2 publishes 1,760.1. Understand Idaho instead computes the property crime rate from the property crime offense count and the UCR reporting population. The underlying 2024 national property crime count agrees between Table 2 and the long-run estimated-crime file at 5,989,723, so any remaining difference in the rate comes only from the population figure each source used.

Measures

  • Violent crime offenses (FBI estimate) (count): Estimated violent crime offenses (murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault) known to law enforcement.
  • Property crime offenses (FBI estimate) (count): Estimated property crime offenses (burglary, larceny-theft, and motor vehicle theft) known to law enforcement.
  • UCR reporting population (FBI estimate) (people): The FBI's own population estimate for the jurisdictions reporting crime data that year, the denominator the FBI's own published crime rates use. Not the Census Bureau's population estimate; will not match the population total shown elsewhere on this site.
  • Violent crime offenses by type (FBI estimate) (count): Estimated violent crime offenses known to law enforcement, by offense: murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, rape, robbery, or aggravated assault. Rape is labeled by whichever definition the FBI used that year (legacy through 2012, revised from 2013 on); the two are not comparable across that boundary.
  • Property crime offenses by type (FBI estimate) (count): Estimated property crime offenses known to law enforcement, by offense: burglary, larceny-theft, or motor vehicle theft.
