• Look up the FBI UCR data for the most recent complete year of data, which can be found at https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/
• Gather the data for Part I crimes in the city and state you live in as well as the U.S. If you do not live in an incorporated city, use the data from the closest city to your home. If you do not live in the U.S., use Riverside, CA for your analysis.
• Complete the chart below, indicating actual data for your selected city (see table information below the chart). In addition, convert the data to crime per 100,000 people (crime number / population x 100,000) for your selected city so you can compare it to state and U.S. information.
