Criminal Victimization, 2018

Bureau of Justice Statistics releases results from 2018 National Crime Victimization Survey

The Bureau of Justice Statistics’ National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) is one of two major sources of crime statistics in the United States. It collects information on nonfatal crimes by surveying a nationally representative sample of U.S. households.

After declining by more than 60% from 1994 to 2015 (the most recent year in which a 1-year decline was observed), the number of violent-crime victims rose from 2015 to 2016, and again from 2016 to 2018.
