FBI Releases 2017 NIBRS Crime Data

By

The FBI released detailed data on nearly 6.3 million criminal offenses reported via the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) in 2017.

The Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program’s latest report, NIBRS, 2017, presents data about victims, known offenders, and relationships for offenses reported in 52 categories.

In addition, the report provides information on arrests for those crimes as well as 10 additional categories for which only arrest data is collected.

In 2017, 6,998 law enforcement agencies, whose jurisdictions covered more than 105.6 million U.S. inhabitants, submitted NIBRS data to the UCR Program. These agencies comprised 42.0 percent of the 16,655 law enforcement agencies who submitted data to the UCR Program in 2017.

Based on NIBRS submissions, the FBI compiled aggregate tables on 5,369,204 incidents involving 6,290,042 offenses, 6,631,461 victims, 5,266,175 known offenders, and 3,361,416 arrestees. (Currently, the FBI does not estimate for agencies that do not submit NIBRS data.)

Of the reported offenses, 61.0 percent were crimes against property, 23.0 percent were crimes against persons, and 16.0 percent were crimes against society.

Victims

Victim types, collected for all reported NIBRS offenses, include individuals, businesses, institutions, or society as a whole. For 2017, the data regarding victims who were individuals revealed the following:

  • Most victims (71.5 percent) were white, 21.0 percent were black or African-American,1.5 percent were Asian, 0.6 percent were American Indian or Alaska Native, and less than 0.1 percent were Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander. The race of 5.3 percent of victims was unknown.

  • By race, more than half (55.7 percent) of known offenders were white, 27.1 percent were black or African-American, and 1.9 percent were of other races. The race was unknown for 15.3 percent of reported known offenders.

Victim-to-Offender Relationships

Concerning the relationship of victims to known offenders, there were 1,448,833 victims of crimes against persons (e.g., murders, sex offenses, assault offenses) and robbery offenses from the crimes against property category.

  • More than half (52.2 percent) of the victims knew their offenders (or at least one offender when more than one was present) but did not have a familial relationship to them.
  • Nearly one quarter (24.4 percent) of the victims were related to their offenders (or at least one offender when more than one was present).
