Understanding Illinois's Crime Profile

Of Illinois's total crime rate, 14.4% is violent crime and 85.6% is property crime. Nationally, violent crime makes up 17.2% of all crime, meaning Illinois has a lower-than-average share of violent offenses.

Illinois's murder rate is 7.9 per 100K, which is 1.2x the national rate of 6.3. Murder is the least common but most serious violent crime, and even small differences in rate can reflect meaningful differences in public safety.

These statistics are compiled from 183 cities across the state that report to the FBI's UCR program. Coverage varies by state — so these numbers represent the best available estimate, not a perfect census. For details, see our methodology page.

Property crime accounts for the bulk of Illinois's total rate at 2,129 per 100K. This includes burglary, larceny-theft (the most common crime nationwide), motor vehicle theft, and arson. While property crime is less immediately dangerous than violent crime, high rates can affect quality of life, insurance costs, and economic investment in affected areas.
