Statewide Results from the AVS
Statewide surveys were conducted in 2010, 2015, and 2020. Estimates of violence from these statewide surveys are presented below. These estimates are separated into sub-components. Intimate partner violence (composite) is separated into two types: threats of physical violence and experienced physical violence. Sexual violence (composite) is also separated into two types: alcohol- or drug-involved sexual assault, and forcible sexual assault. Finally, if any of these types of violence were reported, they were classified as experiencing intimate partner violence, sexual violence, or both (composite). Click on the buttons below to see lifetime reported violence and past year reported violence.
