LAPD NIBRS Offenses Dataset
*August 18, 2026: Dataset renamed from "LAPD NIBRS Offenses Dataset 2026 to Present". The “LAPD NIBRS Offenses Dataset” now provides a consolidated source of all NIBRS Offense records entered into the Los Angeles Police Department’s Records Management System (RMS). While RMS was implemented on March 7, 2024, the dataset includes offense information from any date, provided the data was entered into RMS. This update also incorporates records previously released in earlier NIBRS datasets to ensure a single, comprehensive public resource.
Effective March 7, 2024, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) implemented a new Records Management System aligned with the FBI’s National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS). NIBRS captures more detailed information per incident than the previous Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) system, which may result in higher counts because multiple offenses within a single incident are reported individually.
More information about NIBRS can be found on the FBI’s website: https://www.fbi.gov/how-we-can-help-you/more-fbi-services-and-information/ucr/nibrs
This dataset reflects NIBRS formatted crime incidents reported to LAPD through the year 2026, occurring in the City of Los Angeles.
This dataset includes three additional data elements:
• The hundred block location of the incident
• The latitude of that hundred block
• The longitude of that hundred block
These elements enhance geographic accuracy while maintaining privacy protections and support improved spatial analysis of crime trends across the city.
