Total number of assault offenses reported in the United States in 2021, by state
Due to the FBI's transition to a new crime reporting system in 2021, only 11,794 of 18,806 law enforcement agencies in the U.S. reported crime data to the FBI. As a result, figures will not accurately reflect the total number of assaults in each state.
