Criminal Justice Information Services Division, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Federal Bureau of Investigation. Crimes Reported: Crimes Confirmed | Crime Type*: Larceny Total, 2004. Data-Planet™ Statistical Datasets by Conquest Systems, Inc. Dataset-ID: 010-001-001
Dataset: Presents data on crimes known to law enforcement, by offense, state, county, and law enforcement agency. Statistics are presented for violent and property crimes.
Shows crimes reported to police, by offense, state, county, and jurisdiction, and crime rate per 100,000 population. Data are from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, which is a nationwide, cooperative statistical effort of more than 18,000 city, university and college, county, state, tribal, and federal law enforcement agencies voluntarily reporting data on crimes brought to their attention. The UCR Program collects offenses known to law enforcement for violent and property crime types (Part I offenses). Each month, participating law enforcement agencies submit information on the number of Part I offenses known to them (crimes reported). Violent crime is composed of four offenses: murder and non-negligent manslaughter, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. Violent crimes are defined in the UCR Program as those offenses which involve force or threat of force. Property crime includes the offenses of burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, and arson. The object of the theft-type offenses is the taking of money or property, but there is no force or threat of force against the victims.

The Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) is the principal investigative arm of the U.S. Department of Justice. The Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program was conceived in 1929 by the International Association of Chiefs of Police to meet a need for reliable, uniform crime statistics for the nation. In 1930, the FBI was tasked with collecting, publishing, and archiving those statistics. A 5-year redesign effort to provide more comprehensive and detailed crime statistics resulted in the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) which collects data on each reported crime incident. The UCR Program is currently being expanded to NIBRS.
