2023 Release of FBI Uniform Crime Reports for Oregon

Abstract

On September 23, 2024, the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program released Crime in the United States, 2023, which shows the number of violent and property index crimes reported for law enforcement agencies throughout the United States. Since the transition to NIBRS (National Incident Based Reporting System) in 2021, the FBI has also annually released new NIBRS estimation data, including new NIBRS estimates for 2023. These estimates include the volume and rate of violent and property index crimes at the state and national level. The Oregon estimates for 2023 are based on reporting from 207 of 236 (87.7 percent) law enforcement agencies, accounting for approximately 98.6 percent of Oregon’s population, while national level estimates are based on reporting from 16,334 of 19,196 (85.1 percent) law enforcement agencies. These crime data estimates have methodological differences from historical crime data released in years prior to 2021.
