Offense tabulations.

Thus black ink is used instead of the three CMY inks. See GCR and dot gain.  Program estimates the level of criminal activity based upon the number of offenses that are known to law enforcement and, using these estimates, computes crime rates for each 100,000 population segment. The Program uses current, permanent population counts in computing computing - computer  crimes rates.

In addition, the reader should remember that many factors influence the amount and type of crime occurring from place to place, and shifting variables may cause crime to vary from time to time within the same place. Other factors contributing to the level of crime in a given area are discussed in Crime Factors (page v).

One tool that law enforcement administrators can use in analyzing the volume of local crime and the performance of the law enforcement agencies A law enforcement agency (LEA) is a term used to describe any agency which enforces the law. This may be a local or state police, federal agencies such as the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) or the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).  is national data. That analysis, however, should not end with a comparison based solely on data presented in this publication. A true assessment of a community's crime problem or the effectiveness of law enforcement operations can be made only by including all the factors that shape local crime.

 discussion of table construction methodology can be found in Appendix appendix, small, worm-shaped blind tube, about 3 in. (7.6 cm) long and 1-4 in. to 1 in.

The following summarizes the contents of the tables contained in Section II-Offenses Reported.

Table 1 is a 20-year table that sets forth national estimates of volume and rate per 100,000 inhabitants for the Part I offenses. Table 2 shows estimates of crime volume and rates for 2003 for the Nation as a whole and for the Nation disaggregated Broken up into parts.  by community type: MSAs, nonmetropolitan counties, and cities and towns outside metropolitan areas. Definitions of these community types can be found in Appendix III.

Data showing the regional distribution of estimated Part I crimes along with proportional proportional

 population estimates are provided in Table 3. A map of the United States illustrating the regions and divisions employed by the UCR Program appears in Appendix III.

Table 4 offers a 2-year trend in the volume and rate estimates by region, geographic division, and state. The estimated volume and rate of Part I offenses for each state by community type is shown in Table 5, and for individual MSAs in Table 6. Table 7 provides breakdowns for the offenses of robbery robbery, in law, felonious taking of property from a person against his will by threatening or committing force or violence. The injury or threat may be directed against the person robbed, his property, or the person or property of his relative or of anyone in his  (by location), burglary burglary, at common law, the breaking and entering of a dwelling house of another at night with the intent to commit a felony, whether the intent is carried out or not.  (by time of day), and larceny-theft (by type) over the past 5 years.

Offenses known to police for cities over 10,000 in population are presented in Table 8, and Table 9 shows the number of offenses occurring on college and university campuses as reported to the UCR Program by college and university law enforcement agencies. The UCR Program does not assign population to educational institutions, but does provide student enrollment information when available.

Offenses reported by metropolitan and nonmetropolitan county law enforcement agencies are presented in Table 10. Table 11 provides offenses reported by state law enforcement agencies, including state police, and federal agencies. Tables 12-19 supply crime trends for volumes and rates by population groupings. The UCR Program's definition of the population groups can be found in Appendix III.

Data concerning weapons used in the violent crimes of murder, robbery, and aggravated assault A person is guilty of aggravated assault if he or she attempts to cause serious bodily injury to another or causes such injury purposely, knowingly, or recklessly under circumstances manifesting extreme indifference to the value of human life; or attempts to cause or purposely or  are presented in Tables 20-22. Tables 23 and 24 provide an analysis of the value of property lost through the crimes of robbery, burglary, motor vehicle theft Motor vehicle theft or grand theft auto is a criminal act of theft generally understood to refer to the stealing of automobiles, buses, motorcycles, snowmobiles, trucks, trailers or any other motorized vehicle legally allowed on public roads and highways, including attempted , and larceny-theft, and offer breakdowns by type and value of property stolen and recovered.

Note

Because the UCR Program does not estimate for arson arson, at common law, the malicious and willful burning of the house of another. Originally, it was an offense against the security of habitation rather than against property rights. , arson offenses are not included in the tables containing offense estimates. However, arson offenses reported by individual law enforcement agencies are displayed in Tables 8-11. Two-year arson trends are shown in Tables 12-15.
