Note: Information presented in this graph represents data from the Uniform Crime Reporting Aggregate Survey, and allow for historical comparisons to be made back to 1962. New definitions of crime categories were introduced in 2009 and are only available in the new format back to 1998. As a result, numbers in this graph will not match data released in the new Incident-based Uniform Crime Reporting Survey format.
