Hate Crime Recorded by Law Enforcement, 2010-2019

This report presents data from the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting Hate Crime Statistics Program (HCSP) on hate crime incidents and victims from 2010 to 2019. The HCSP, which began in 1990, collects hate crime data regarding criminal offenses motivated, in whole or in part, by the offender’s bias against a race or ethnicity, religion, disability, sexual orientation, gender, or gender identity. The HCSP includes crimes reported to police that, after investigation, reveal sufficient evidence to support being recorded as hate crimes. The report examines incidents and victims of hate crime recorded by law enforcement, trends over time in total hate crimes, and hate crimes motivated by bias against the victim’s race, ethnicity, or ancestry.
