In 2020, BJS provided new classifications of urban, suburban, and rural areas for use in the 2019 version and future versions of the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS), with the goal of presenting a more accurate picture of where criminal victimizations occur. Based on language previously published in Criminal Victimization, 2019, this report illustrates how these classifications are determined and how the new definitions more closely fit U.S. residents? own sense of where they live. See the full Criminal Victimization, 2019 report for additional statistics.
Classification of Urban, Suburban, and Rural Areas in the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCJ 255923) was written by BJS Director Jeffrey H. Anderson. The report, related documents, and additional information about BJS?s statistical publications and programs are available at www.bjs.gov.
