The map is a visual summary; every value is in the table below, which is the keyboard and screen-reader path. Groups are quintiles of the values shown (a derived grouping). Boundaries: Natural Earth (public domain), simplified. Alaska and Hawaii are shown as insets, not to scale.

Rank is derived by Quadranac: 1 = highest value; ties share a rank. Values are as published in the source table.

Caution against ranking: the FBI warns that rankings based on its Uniform Crime Reporting data “lead to simplistic and/or incomplete analyses that often create misleading perceptions”. Agency participation, reporting practices and local conditions vary, so differences between states partly reflect reporting rather than crime.
