According to a new report on Domestic Violence, North Carolina isn’t making much headway on the problem. In 2025, more than 63,000 people in the state reported being victims of a crime committed by current or former spouses, partners or family members. This was in a report from the North Carolina Criminal Justice Analysis Center. The report shows that domestic and family violence rates are holding steady in North Carolina even as overall violent crime is declining. Women, African American’s, and adults 25 to 34 were most frequently identified as victims in domestic violence reports. The High Country, Watauga, Ashe and Avery counties, generally ranks low in domestic violence cases.
