| Summary | Number of offenses, arrests, clearances |
| Additional Background | The FBI reports that they are reviewing 2015 data but do not have a timeline for release. We will monitor and post 2015 data when available.
This database reports the number of offenses (murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, and arson) and auxiliary offense data (e.g., burglary: forcible entry, unlawful entry, and attempted entry) for each agency reporting data to the Uniform Crime Reporting Program (UCR) in U.S. States. See crime definitions for crime descriptions.
The database also reports the number of reported offenses cleared by arrest or exceptional means and the number of clearances which involved only juveniles (under 18 years of age). The category "total offenses cleared by an arrest" do not contain data for the years 1960-1963.
