So now we know that there is possible bias in the dataset, what can we do with it?

It will take each column’s hate-crime type combine them all into one column called “victim_cat”. Then each cell count will go into the new column, “crimecount”.
Finally, we are only doing this for the quantitiative variables, which are in columns 3 - 10. Note the command facet_wrap requires (~) before “victim_cat”.

We can see that hate crimes against jews spiked in 2012. All other years were relatively consistent with a slight upward trend. There was also an upward trend in hate crimes against gay males. Finally, there appears to be a downward trend in hate crimes against blacks during this period.
What about the counties?
I have not dealt with the counties, but I think that is the next place to explore. I can make bar graphs by county instead of by year.

SO many countries
There are too many counties for this plot to make sense, but maybe we can just look at the 5 counties with the highest number of incidents. - use “group_by” to group each row by counties - use summarize to get the total sum of incidents by county - use arrange(desc) to arrange those sums of total incidents by counties in descending order.
counties <- hatenew |>
group_by(year, county)|>
summarize(sum = sum(crimecount)) |>
arrange(desc(sum))## `summarise()` has grouped output by 'year'. You can override using the

Some positive aspects of this data set is that there are a lot of different data points allowing for a wider range of values and more accurate population data. A negative aspect of this data set is that it is not complete. There isn’t data for a lot of the rows in the data set which doesn’t allow for a bigger picture of all hate crimes. Two things I would like to explore in this data set is percentage of crimes in each area to see each individual crime rate. The other thing I would like to explore in this data set is the percentage of the population that did these crimes. Both of these would allow people to see which areas need more security (Cops) and which are don’t need any more additions.
