Wildcat Will Posted May 25, 2023 Report Share Posted May 25, 2023 Since you like numbers. Here's some. Violent victimization rates, which include rape and sexual assault, robbery, and aggravated or simple assault, were significantly higher in small and mid-size urban areas in the Northeast, Midwest, and West than the national average rate of 21.6 per 1,000 persons ages 12 or older. In small urban areas, rates averaged 30.3 per 1,000 in the Midwest and 29.9 per 1,000 in the Northeast. In mid-size urban areas, violent victimization rates were 33.0 per 1,000 in the Midwest, 30.4 per 1,000 in the Northeast, and 31.0 per 1,000 in the West. However, rates in small and mid-size urban areas in the South were not significantly higher than the national average. A greater percentage of violent crime in mid-size (54.5%) and the large (52.3%) urban area in the Midwest was serious violent victimization, compared to the national average (33.6%). Rates of violent victimization were significantly lower than the national average in rural areas in the South (15.3 per 1,000) and Midwest (15.7 per 1,000), suburban areas in the South (17.1 per 1,000), and large cities in the Midwest (16.1 per 1,000).
