    Crime trend analysis

    Every action done against the law and regulation of the state is referred to as a crime. In

    many cases, crime rates go in hand with the level of people population. A state may experience

    an increase or decrease in crime rate in different years depending on how it responds to the

    previous year crime. Crimes are of different types with different causes and impacts. This paper

    will analyze the rate of violent crime, property crime and overall crime trend from 2012-2016 of

    the top five population leading cities in the United States.

    The cities selected in this study are New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston,

    Phoenix, and Philadelphia. Property crime in the specified cities was the most common than

    violent crime from 2012 to 2016. Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) reported property crimes

    2,109.09 out of 100,000 residents compared to violent crimes of 379.4 per 100,000 residents

    (Gramlich, 2020). The most common property crime between 2012 -2016 was general theft,

    motor vehicle theft and burglary. Among the leading violent crimes includes common offences,

    rape, robbery and non-negligent manslaughter. According to BJS, the cities have experienced a

    decline in property and violence crimes from 2012 to 2016. Gramlich (2020) shows that violent

    crime depreciated at an overall rate of 74%, and property crime decreased at 71%.

    Police support was the mainstream of the decrease of both property violence crimes within

    the specified years. Police take action towards the reported crime cases. According to Gramlich

    (2020), 40.9% of violent crime victims reported their cases to the police and property crime

    cases at a rate of 32.4% were reported to the authorities. The reduction of violence and property

    crimes has initiated the reduction of crime regulation costs. The cost that the crime cases could

    incur is used to benefits the United States residents socially and economically.
