- Abstract
- This map layer shows crime statistics for the United States for the years 2001-2002, drawn from the Uniform Crime Reporting Program datacompiled by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and archived at theInter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR).Crime data are reported by county and are provided for eight crimes:murder, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny,motor vehicle theft, and arson. Statewide allocation data are notincluded in this map layer. Crime data are adjusted to compensate forincomplete reporting by individual law enforcement agencies. See the online codebook at http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/cgi- bin/bob/archive2?study=4009path=NACJDdocsonly=yes for more information.
- Purpose
- These data are intended for geographic display and analysis at thenational level, and for large regional areas. The data should bedisplayed and analyzed at scales appropriate for 1:2,000,000-scale data.No responsibility is assumed by the Department of Justice, the NationalAtlas of the United States, or the ICPSR in the use of these data.
- Supplemental Information
- Some of the crime data reported in this file was estimated. Whereagencies reported for 12 months, the data were included as reported.Where agencies reported for between three and eleven months, the datawere increased by a weight of (12/months reported). Where agenciesreported for one or two months, the actual data were not included,but estimated data for the entire year were calculated based on ratescomputed using data from 12-month reporting agencies within the samegeographic stratum (defined by population group) within that State.Where agencies did not report at all, no estimations were performed.For New York City in 2001, the total number of murders in the FBIdata files is 3,452, which includes 2,823 victims of the September 11 bombing. For more information on imputation procedures please see http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/cgi-bin/bob/archive2?study=4009path=NACJDdocsonly=yesto access the Codebook for ICPSR Study Number 4009.

A value of 0 indicates that all data for the county are based on estimates rather than reported data. The coverage indicator (CI) for each county is calculated as follows:CI = (1-(sum((agency pop/pop_arrXX)((12-months reported)/12))))*100Where agency pop is the population represented by the reportingagency for that year, and pop_arrXX is the total population for the county (as defined above). The value for "months reported" will be 0 for agencies reporting 1-2 months of data, because any data provided bythese agencies was set to zero and the data were estimated using theprocedure described above.
