The Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program is a nationwide, cooperative statistical effort of nearly 17,000 city, county, and state law enforcement agencies voluntarily reporting data on crimes brought to their attention. 

Since 1930, the FBI has administered the UCR Program and issued periodic assessments of the nature and type of crime in the nation. The program’s primary objective is to generate a reliable set of criminal stastics for use in law enforcement administration, operation and management, however, its data have over the years become one of the country’s leading social indicators. The American public looks to Uniform Crime Reports for information on fluctuations in the level of crime, and criminologists, socialogists, legislators, municipal planners, the media, and other students of criminal justice use the statistics for varied research and planning purposes.
