| FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
THURSDAY, AUGUST 7, 2025 | | PUBLICATION ADVISORY BJS Releases Criminal Victimization in the 22 Largest U.S. States, 2020-2022 The Bureau of Justice Statistics, in the Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs, released Criminal Victimization in the 22 Largest U.S. States, 2020-2022 today. This report presents
statistics from BJS's National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) and examines victimization rates across the 22 most populous U.S. states and how reported and unreported crime levels vary across these states and over time. The report analyzes selected state-level estimates of violent and property victimization for the
3-year aggregate periods of 2017–19 and 2020–22 in the 22 largest U.S. states. Findings are based on data from the NCVS, the nation's primary source of data on criminal victimization. State-level data, available following an increase in the NCVS sample that began in 2016, can provide more detailed information than the national NCVS estimates and other NCVS estimates historically produced for BJS reports, such as regional estimates. | | About the Bureau of Justice Statistics The Bureau of Justice Statistics of the U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs is the principal federal agency responsible for collecting, analyzing, and disseminating reliable statistics on crime and criminal justice in the United States.
