| 1In previous versions of the table, "violent excluding simple assault" was labeled as "serious violent" victimization. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2"At school" includes in the school building, on school property, on a school bus, and going to or from school. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3Race categories exclude persons of Hispanic ethnicity. "Other" includes American Indian/Alaska Native, Asian, Pacific Islander, and Two or more races. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 4Refers to location of the victim’s residence and includes urban, suburban, and rural. Areas are categorized based on population size and population density. This differs from previous versions of the table because the Bureau of Justice Statistics revised its definition of urbanicity in 2019. For more information, see Classification of Urban, Suburban, and Rural Areas in the National Crime Victimization Survey, available at https://bjs.ojp.gov/content/pub/pdf/cusrancvs.pdf. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

| NOTE: "All violent" victimization includes the crimes of rape, sexual assault, robbery, aggravated assault, and simple assault. "Theft" includes attempted and completed purse-snatching, completed pickpocketing, and all attempted and completed thefts, with the exception of motor vehicle thefts. Theft does not include robbery, which involves the threat or use of force and is classified as a violent crime. "Total victimization" includes theft and violent crimes. Data in this table are from the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) and are reported in accordance with Bureau of Justice Statistics statistical standards. Due to differences in time coverage and administration between the NCVS and the School Crime Supplement (SCS) to the NCVS, data in this table cannot be compared with data in tables that are based on the SCS. In 2022, students may have spent less time at school than in previous years (i.e., years prior to 2020) due to their school's modified procedures to mitigate the risks associated with the coronavirus pandemic. Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding. The population size for students ages 12-18 was 26,128,300 in 2022. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
