Resolves based on whole-year comparisons of FBI UCR (https://www.fbi.gov/how-we-can-help-you/more-fbi-services-and-information/ucr) between 2022 and 2023, for the following definition of violent crimes: "In the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, violent crime is composed of four offenses: murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. Violent crimes are defined in the UCR Program as those offenses that involve force or threat of force."
Will resolve as soon as I become aware that UCR data for 2023 has been posted. Latest is probably Nov 2024.
Resolves N/A if FBI UCR data for 2023 does not become available in 2024, or if the FBI changes its definition of violent crime to make like-to-like comparison impossible.
Note that, due to potential variation in the number of police departments reporting, I will attempt to use a rate rather than absolute number (if reported).
1,000The question of whether violent crime rates increased in the USA in 2023, according to the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) data, is a complex one attracting much attention. Factors influencing crime rates are multifaceted and include socioeconomic conditions, policing strategies, and societal trends. The official FBI UCR data provides the most comprehensive snapshot, but it's released with a lag, meaning the full picture for 2023 will be available later.

No. Considering historical values, it's predicted that the violent crime rate in the USA may not increase in 2023. The trend from 2020 to 2022 shows a consistent decline in violent crime rates. Concurrently, unemployment rates have decreased since 2020, suggesting a recovering job market that can help reduce crime rates. However, elevated Consumer Price Index (CPI) values for 2021 and 2022 indicate potential economic instability. While this can sometimes correlate with higher crime rates, the combined influence of declining violent crime and unemployment trends might lead to stabilization or a moderate decrease in violent crime rates for 2023.
