Part I Property Crimes

The Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program of the FBI divides criminal offenses into two groups: Part I and Part II Crimes. Part I Crimes are serious crimes that occur with regularity in all areas of the country and are likely to be reported to the police. The UCR collects information on the age, sex, and race of people arrested for Part I Crimes. 

Part I Property Crimes include burglary, larceny theft, motor vehicle theft, and arson. The presence of property crime in a neighborhood can cause mental distress in residents and may impact property values in an area. 

Part I Violent Crimes

The Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program of the FBI divides criminal offenses into two groups: Part I and Part II Crimes. Part I Crimes are serious crimes that occur with regularity in all areas of the country and are likely to be reported to the police.

Part I Violent Crimes include murder and non-negligent manslaughter, forcible rape, aggravated assault, and robbery.

Exposure to violent crime can significantly hinder psychological, social and academic development in children and leaves them at a higher risk of committing violence in the future. Individuals living in high-crime areas may be less likely to spend time outdoors and foster social connectedness with neighbors.

Rates of violent crime significantly vary across neighborhoods and are often related to poverty rates, job access, segregation, and residential stability among many other factors. Neighborhoods segregated along race and economic lines tend to have higher reported rates of violent crime, which often hinder economic and institutional investment in an area.
