US homicides spiked in 2020 to over 6 per 100,000, an increase of over 30% year on year (source: https://www.npr.org/2021/09/27/1040904770/fbi-data-murder-increase-2020). If 2021 saw a similar increase, homicides could be as high as 7 or 8 per 100,000. Alternately, 2021 might have seen a similar number. This question will resolve when official FBI statistics are reported on, likely around September 2022.
