This comprehensive analysis of arrest trends is the first of its kind since the federal government stopped releasing detailed arrest data in 2020. It shows that arrests fell sharply in 2020 during the pandemic—and have stayed down since then.
Using multiple federal data sources, this report rebuilds national arrest trend lines across age, gender, race, and offense categories—restoring national visibility into more than 40 years of arrest patterns.
