"Despite the increase, the national violent crime rate remains well below the highs reported in the 1990s. Still, crime is ultimately a local phenomenon, and in some parts of the country, violence is much more common than in others.
There were 174,026 violent crimes reported in California in 2020, more than in any other state. Adjusting for population, however, California's violent crime rate of 442 incidents for every 100,000 people is 16th highest among states.
Despite a 52% surge in homicides, California's overall violent crime rate changed little from 2019, climbing by just 0.2%. The state's rising murder rate was offset by declines in reported cases of rape and robbery."
