Criminal Victimization, 2016: Revised
Publication Date: 2018
Abstract: Based on revised estimates from the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS), from 2015 to 2016, violent criminal victimizations increased against males and persons in their mid-20s to mid-30s. The Bureau of Justice Statistics released Criminal Victimization, 2016: Revised with revised estimates of criminal victimization from the 2016 NCVS. The revised official estimates replace previously released 2016 estimates that, due to a redesign of the NCVS sample, did not permit year-to-year comparisons. Provides revised official estimates, which replace previously released 2016 estimates that did not permit year-to-year-comparisons. This report examines violent crimes (rape or sexual assault, robbery, aggravated assault, and simple assault) and property crimes (household burglary, motor vehicle theft, and other theft) reported and not reported to police. It also includes data on domestic violence, intimate partner violence, injury to victims, and weapon use. See Criminal Victimization, 2016 to review the original release.
