Aggravated assault rate in the United States in 2023, by state
(per 100,000 inhabitants)
Aggravated assault rate is based on the population covered by the agencies from whom the FBI collected the data from.
Due to the FBI's transition to a new crime reporting system, not all law enforcement agencies submitted data to the FBI for 2023. As a result, figures may not accurately reflect the total number of crimes.
