Rape
​
As of 2018, the United States had an estimated rape rate of 42.6 per 100,000 population according to data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). This translates to approximately 135,755 reported cases of rape in that year alone.
​
Child rape
​
According to data from the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN), there are an estimated 433,648 cases of child sexual abuse in the United States each year. This includes both reported and unreported cases. Furthermore, approximately 90% of child sexual abuse perpetrators are known to the victim, making it even more difficult to accurately determine the prevalence of this crime.
​
Suicide
The suicide rate in the United States has been steadily increasing over the past two decades, with an average of 47,173 deaths by suicide reported in 2019. This equates to a rate of 14.5 suicides per 100,000 individuals. In comparison, the United Kingdom had a lower rate of 11.2 suicides per 100,000 individuals in the same year.
Divorce Rate
According to data from the National Center for Health Statistics, there were 746,971 divorces in the United States in 2019. This equates to a divorce rate of approximately 2.9 per 1,000 population. However, this rate has been declining over the years with the highest recorded rate being 5.3 per 1,000 population in 1980.
STD
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there are an estimated 20 million new cases of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) each year in the United States. This includes infections such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis. However, this number may be underestimated due to many cases going unreported or undiagnosed.
Inmates
As of 2020, there were approximately 2.3 million inmates in the United States according to data from the Bureau of Justice Statistics. This makes the US have the highest incarceration rate in the world at 639 per 100,000 population. However, this number has been declining in recent years due to criminal justice reform efforts.
Drug Abuse
According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, an estimated 20.4 million adults aged 18 or older had a substance use disorder in 2019. This includes both illicit drugs and prescription drugs. The number of people struggling with drug addiction is often difficult to accurately determine as it can vary greatly depending on factors such as age group, type of drug, and method of measurement.
Alcohol Addiction
According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, an estimated 14.5 million adults aged 18 or older had an alcohol use disorder in 2019. This includes both binge drinking and heavy alcohol use. However, this number may be underestimated as many individuals with alcohol addiction do not seek treatment or are not diagnosed. Furthermore, alcohol-related deaths account for approximately 95,000 deaths per year in the United States. Alcohol addiction can have a significant impact on individuals' physical and mental health, as well as their relationships and overall quality of life.
Abortion
Unfortunately, there is no comprehensive data on the number of abortions performed in the United States each year. This is due to varying state laws and regulations, as well as a lack of national reporting requirements. However, according to estimates from the Guttmacher Institute, there were approximately 862,320 abortions performed in 2017. This equates to a rate of approximately 13.5 abortions per 1,000 women aged 15-44 years old. It is important to note that this number may be higher or lower depending on various factors such as access to reproductive healthcare and personal beliefs.
LGBTQ
According to a survey conducted by Gallup in 2017, approximately 4.5% of adults in the United States identified as LGBTQ. This translates to approximately 11 million individuals. However, this percentage may be higher as not all individuals feel comfortable openly identifying as LGBTQ or participating in surveys on their sexual orientation or gender identity. In addition, this number does not account for individuals who may identify as LGBTQ but do not fall under traditional definitions and labels.
Prostitution
There is limited data on the exact number of prostitution cases in the United States, as it is illegal and often goes unreported. However, according to a report by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, there were an estimated 80,000 arrests for prostitution-related activities in 2018.
Human trafficking
The true number of human trafficking cases in the United States is difficult to determine due to its secretive nature. However, according to data from the National Human Trafficking Hotline, there were 11,500 reported cases of human trafficking in 2019. This includes both sex and labor trafficking.
Robbery and Burglary
In 2019, there were 1,117,696 reported cases of robbery in the United States according to data from the FBI. This translates to a rate of approximately 341.5 robberies per 100,000 population.
For burglary, there were 1,117,696 reported cases in that same year, equating to a rate of approximately 341.5 burglaries per 100,000 population. It is important to note that not all cases may be reported or accurately recorded in official statistics.
Murder and Manslaughter
According to data from the FBI, there were 16,425 reported cases of murder and non-negligent manslaughter in 2019 in the United States. This equates to a rate of approximately 5 per 100,000 population. However, this number may be higher as not all cases are reported or accurately recorded. Additionally, there were also 85,430 reported cases of aggravated assault, which can be classified as a violent crime similar to murder and manslaughter.
Child rape
According to data from the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN), there are an estimated 433,648 cases of child sexual abuse in the United States each year. This includes both reported and unreported cases. Furthermore, approximately 90% of child sexual abuse perpetrators are known to the victim, making it even more difficult to accurately determine the prevalence of this crime.
Anti-Muslim crime
According to data from the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), there were 2,213 reported anti-Muslim bias incidents in 2019. This includes verbal and physical attacks, discrimination in employment or housing, and harassment. However, this number may be higher as many incidents go unreported or are not accurately recorded. It is also important to note that these reported incidents may not reflect the full extent of Islamophobia in the United States. Despite this, it is clear that hate crimes against Muslims continue to be a prevalent issue in our society.
Anti Semitism crime
According to data from the Anti-Defamation League, there were 2,107 reported incidents of anti-semitism in 2019. This includes harassment, vandalism, and physical assaults. However, this number may be significantly higher as many cases go unreported. Additionally, it is important to note that this data only represents reported incidents and does not account for underlying sentiments or attitudes towards the Jewish community in the United States.
