Notes:

Classification: The Uniform Crime Reporting Program utilizes 4 classifications for race: White, Black, Indian (Native-American), and Asian. In the tables above the classification “Other” includes both Indian (Native-American) and Asian arrests.

Rates: Arrrest rates are per 100,000 population.
