For our analysis, we primarily focused on violent offenses such mas murder, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. We calculated the crime rate per 10,000 people to understand the prevalence of these violent crimes in each county.

  2. Forcible Rape: 20
  3. Robbery: 30
  4. Aggravated Assault: 40
