Human trafficking is a critical issue in the U.S., affecting a significant portion of the population. In 2022, states like California, Texas, and Florida recorded the highest arrest rates for prostitution-related offenses. Each year, an estimated 70,000 to 80,000 individuals are arrested for prostitution. Human trafficking generates approximately $9.5 billion annually, with around 300,000 children at risk of being trafficked. Key questions arise about the demographics of victims and traffickers, as well as the states most affected by this crime.
