Crime and Victimization in the Three Largest Metropolitan Areas, 1980-98
Examines burglary, robbery, and aggravated assault in the metropolitan areas of New York City, Chicago, and Los Angeles to assess changes in reporting to the police over time. Compares crime estimates for those crimes and areas from National Crime Victimization Survey, a household survey that records reported and unreported crimes, and the Uniform Crime Reports, submitted to the FBI from local law enforcement agencies based on citizen reports.
