This is interesting, fewer hate crimes / population in the south?
I thought the same thing! Do you think they didn't report their hate crimes in 2006?
An armed society is a polite society.
Yes, I remember the south opted out that year.
The data seems to vary widely, even with neighboring states. Without knowing more about the dataset, I would guess that hate crimes are qualified differently in different states, making it hard to compare data.
What exactly defines a hate crime, and who's responsible for tabulating the data?
The south's apparent sparsity of hate crime could reflect a genuinely lower incidence rate, or it could represent a higher reluctance to label an act as a hate crime, relative to another state that scored higher.
It would be interesting to map 'hate crimes' / 'total violent crime' and see the percentage of violent criminal acts reported as 'hate crime'.
Indeed. Pity there's no "Hate crimes per 100k" or "Total violent crime" base stats. I assume that's what the "Suggest a Data Set" link is for? Took a look at that and it seems you have to manually enter all the data, which seems... problematic.
You make a valid point beef. How would you suggest we make things easier for users who want to add their own data sets?
Upload spreadsheets/.csv text files?
