{"chart":{"slug":"robbery-rate-by-state","title":"Which states have the most robberies?","takeaway":"In 2025, District of Columbia had the highest robbery rate, about 348 per 100,000 people, followed by California (95) and New York (91). Idaho (6), Wyoming (10) and West Virginia (10) had the lowest; the U.S. rate was about 50. Rates count only the police agencies that reported to the FBI; in a few states, such as Florida and Mississippi, those cover only about 80 to 85% of residents. Since 2021, when the FBI began taking only its newer NIBRS reports, state rates don't line up exactly with earlier years.","topic":"Crime","chart_type":"bar","ranking":true,"x_label":"State","y_label":"Robberies per 100,000 people","unit":null,"points_count":52,"source":{"name":"FBI Crime Data Explorer, Uniform Crime Reporting Program","url":"https://cde.ucr.cjis.gov/LATEST/webapp/#/pages/explorer/crime/crime-trend"},"license":{"name":"Public domain (U.S. government work); source FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program","url":"https://www.usa.gov/government-copyright"},"data_as_of":"2025-12-31","updated_at":"2026-10-17T18:50:41.593Z","url":"https://chart.ly/charts/robbery-rate-by-state","api_url":"https://chart.ly/api/v1/charts/robbery-rate-by-state","csv_url":"https://chart.ly/charts/robbery-rate-by-state/data.csv","image_url":"https://chart.ly/charts/robbery-rate-by-state/image.png","embed_url":"https://chart.ly/charts/robbery-rate-by-state/embed","credit":"FBI Crime Data Explorer, Uniform Crime Reporting Program, via Chartly (https://chart.ly/charts/robbery-rate-by-state)","credit_html":"FBI Crime Data Explorer, Uniform Crime Reporting Program, via \u003ca href=\"https://chart.ly/charts/robbery-rate-by-state\"\u003eChartly\u003c/a\u003e","average_label":"U.S. overall","zero_axis":true,"data":[{"label":"District of Columbia","value":348.0},{"label":"California","value":94.9},{"label":"New York","value":91.1},{"label":"Maryland","value":86.1},{"label":"Alaska","value":84.5},{"label":"Illinois","value":63.3},{"label":"Nevada","value":56.9},{"label":"New Mexico","value":53.7},{"label":"Washington","value":53.1},{"label":"Texas","value":52.5},{"label":"Oregon","value":51.8},{"label":"Arizona","value":50.9},{"label":"U.S. overall","value":49.9},{"label":"Colorado","value":48.6},{"label":"Pennsylvania","value":45.4},{"label":"Missouri","value":43.1},{"label":"Tennessee","value":42.0},{"label":"Ohio","value":41.9},{"label":"North Carolina","value":41.7},{"label":"Hawaii","value":40.8},{"label":"Delaware","value":39.0},{"label":"New Jersey","value":38.4},{"label":"Minnesota","value":35.4},{"label":"Georgia","value":33.8},{"label":"Massachusetts","value":33.4},{"label":"Florida","value":33.2},{"label":"Kansas","value":32.9},{"label":"Oklahoma","value":32.2},{"label":"Indiana","value":31.9},{"label":"Arkansas","value":31.0},{"label":"Alabama","value":30.8},{"label":"Connecticut","value":30.3},{"label":"Virginia","value":30.3},{"label":"Wisconsin","value":30.3},{"label":"Kentucky","value":29.7},{"label":"South Carolina","value":28.4},{"label":"Louisiana","value":27.9},{"label":"Michigan","value":27.4},{"label":"Utah","value":23.5},{"label":"Mississippi","value":21.8},{"label":"North Dakota","value":18.9},{"label":"South Dakota","value":18.9},{"label":"Nebraska","value":18.8},{"label":"Montana","value":18.2},{"label":"Rhode Island","value":18.2},{"label":"Iowa","value":15.9},{"label":"Vermont","value":11.7},{"label":"Maine","value":11.1},{"label":"New Hampshire","value":11.1},{"label":"West Virginia","value":9.7},{"label":"Wyoming","value":9.6},{"label":"Idaho","value":5.8}],"annotations":[]},"docs":"https://chart.ly/developers","terms":"Free to use with credit: wherever you show or quote a chart's data, name Chartly with a link to that chart's url (each chart's credit line does both) and credit its source as its license asks.","credit":"FBI Crime Data Explorer, Uniform Crime Reporting Program, via Chartly (https://chart.ly/charts/robbery-rate-by-state)"}
