Title: California Youth Crime Plunges to All-Time Low

Summary: New figures for 2011 released by the California Department of Justice’s Criminal Justice Statistics Center (CJSC, 2012) show arrests of youths under age 18 fell by 20% from 2010 to 2011, reaching their lowest level since statewide statistics were first compiled in 1954. While there are many theories regarding reasons for crime trends, none have been sufficient to explain the significant decreases in California’s youth crime over the past 60 years. This publication explores the most recent data in the context of these historic trends, and examines possible explanations for the youth crime decline.
