Archived as of 11/14/2025: The datasets will no longer receive updates but the historical data will continue to be available for download.
This dataset is the underlying data for the Public Safety portion of the Equity Data Portal displaying Indiana's total arrests by demographics.
This data is from the Criminal History Records Information System (CHRIS), which comes from three main sources. Arrest data comes from the Live Scan system, which is used for finger printing and capturing other pertinent information at the time of the arrest. Criminal disposition data are maintained by prosecutors in the ProsLink system, and by courts in the Odyssey system.
-
Arrest county is determined by the location of the booking agency. If the booking agency is missing, then the arresting agency is used.
-
The % of IN Population will not equal 100% because we are excluding non-represented racial category "Two or More Races," which accounts for ~1.7% of Indiana's population.
-
Because some arrests are not included in the individual race categories shown here, total counts and percentages from the individual race categories add up to less than the totals for “All” races.
-
This dashboard uses 2010 Census data.
