Understanding This List

  • The methodology used in compiling this list is articulated in A Study of Active Shooter Incidents in the United States Between 2000 and 2013 (Blair, J. Pete, and Schweit, Katherine W. [2014]. Texas State University and Federal Bureau of Investigation, U.S. Department of Justice, Washington, D.C. 2014).
  • In that study, the FBI identified 11 locations where the public was most at risk during an incident. These location categories include:
    • Commercial areas (divided into business open to pedestrian traffic, businesses closed to pedestrian traffic, and malls)
    • Education environments (divided into schools [pre-kindergarten through 12th grade] and institutions of higher learning)
    • Open spaces
    • Government properties (divided into military and other government properties)
    • Residences
    • Houses of worship
    • Health care facilities
  • In 2018, the FBI added a new location category, "Other Location," to capture incidents that occurred in venues not included in the 11 previously identified locations.
