Crime Statistics

Official Crime Statistics

Each October, the City of San Jose Police Department's annual crime statistics are published for the previous calendar year in the FBI's Uniform Crime Report (UCR) publication, "Crime in the United States". This volume is a collection of data submitted by local, state and county law enforcement agencies utilizing a standardized set of reporting criteria through the Uniform Crime Reporting program. The Crime in the United States volume is publicly accessible via the FBI website http://www.fbi.gov/ucr/ucr.htm or through local libraries http://www.sjlibrary.org/.

In addition to annual statistics pertaining to select UCR categories, tables are provided below detailing annual offenses, crime rates, domestic violence and hate crime incidents.
