Arrests, Aged 10-17 Years 
Arrests, Aged 10-17 Years is the number of arrests that occurred among youths who were aged 10-17. This is a total of all arrests. If the same youth was arrested more than once, each individual arrest will be counted in this report.

Research has shown that risks associated with juvenile arrests are cognitive deficits, low school involvement, living in poverty, or being runaway or homeless. Monitoring arrest rates can help increase public safety and reduce juvenile delinquency through effective prevention, intervention and treatment services that strengthen families and improve lives of troubled youth.

Data Note(s)
  • The state total includes counts among out-of-state residents; therefore, the sum of the counties may be less than the state total.
  • Data are for fiscal year, July 1-June 30.
  • All population-based rates are calculated using July 1 Florida population estimates from the Florida Legislature, Office of Economic and Demographic Research.
  • This is secondary, quantitative data.
  • Blanks indicate that data is not available.
  • Annually, FLHealthCHARTS adds one new data year and updates the previous four data years to align with official publications of the Department of Juvenile Justice.
  • Chart will display if there are at least three years of data.
  • Multi-year counts are a sum of the selected years, not an average.
  • Quartiles are calculated when data are available for at least 51 counties.
  • MOV - Measure of Variability: Probable range of values resulting from random fluctuations in the number of events. Not calculated when numerator is below 5 or denominator is below 20, or count or rate is suppressed. The MOV is useful for comparing rates to a goal or standard. For example, if the absolute difference between the county rate and the statewide rate is less than the MOV, the county rate is not significantly different from the statewide rate (alpha level = 0.05). When the absolute difference between the county rate and the statewide rate is greater than the MOV, the county rate is significantly different from the statewide rate. MOV should not be used to determine if the rates of two different counties, or the county rates for two different years, are statistically significantly different.
  • Denom - abbreviated for denominator.
  • Population estimates are not available for persons whose county of residence is unknown. Given this, the denominator and associated rate are not available.
  • * - Indicates the county rate is statistically significantly different from the statewide rate.
