¹ The FBI does not publish arson data unless it receives data from either the agency or the state for all 12 months of the calendar year.
² Because of changes in the state/local agency's reporting practices, figures are not comparable to previous years' data.
³ The FBI determined that the agency's data were inflated. Consequently, affected data are not included in this table.
