The Sentencing Project compiles state-level criminal justice data from a variety of sources. Using the three tabs below, you can navigate between interactive features that allow you to access and use these data. In the State Data Map, you can roll over states for a quick snapshot of key figures from each state and click on any state to see more data. You can also use the dropdown menu to display different datasets on the map. Under Detailed State Data, you can access full datasets for each state and compare states. In State Rankings, you can see how states stack up against each other in different areas.
