This is hard to answer because many people do not bother to report the abuse to authorities, for many reasons. To give you an idea of the size of the problem, 30% of women are murdered by their partner or ex partner. Men get killed too but The Washington City Paper had this to say:

"Domestic violence kills in many ways. When it comes to male deaths by domestic violence, men are more likely to be killed as a result of attempting to murder their own partners than as a result of their partner's aggression. Men who are victims of domestic violence are almost as likely to be killed by a partner's ex than by their partners themselves."

The moral is leave sooner rather than later. Someone who yells at you or hits you cannot be "fixed". Also check out the history of the person you are interested in dating.
