    Description

    The purpose of this project was to estimate long-term trends in violent victimization by gender and various socio-demographic factors. These factors included race and ethnicity, age, type of place (urban, suburban, rural), socio-economic status, marital status (for adults), and family status (for juveniles). The principal investigators also further disaggregated these violent victimization trends by victim-offender relationship to reveal trends in violence committed by strangers, intimate partners, and known/non-intimate offenders. The researchers produced these various trends in violent victimization by pooling and appropriately weighting the National Crime Survey and its successor, the National Crime Victimization Survey for the period 1973 to 2005, resulting in 33 years of data. In total, a series of 135 trends in violent victimization were developed.

    Description

    Earlier editions: Women in the criminal justice system 2009-10

    Biennial statistics on the representation of females and males as victims, suspects, offenders and employees in the Criminal Justice System.

    These reports are released by the Ministry of Justice and produced in accordance with arrangements approved by the UK Statistics Authority.

    Introduction

    This report provides information about how females and males were represented in the Criminal Justice System (CJS) in the most recent year for which data were available, and, wherever possible, across the last five years. Section 95 of the Criminal Justice Act 1991 requires the Government to publish statistical data to assess whether any discrimination exists in how the CJS treats people based on their gender.

    These statistics are used by policy makers, the agencies who comprise the CJS and others (e.g. academics) to monitor differences between females and males, and to
    highlight areas where practitioners and others may wish to undertake more in-depth analysis. The identification of differences should not be equated with discrimination as there are many reasons why apparent disparities may exist.

    Specific findings

    Women as victims of crime

    The most recent data show differences in the level and types of victimisation between females and males. Key findings:

    • The 2011/12 CSEW estimated three in every 100 adults were a victim of violent crime. As in previous years, a smaller proportion of women than men interviewed reported being victims of violence (2% versus 4% in the 2011/12 CSEW).
    • The 2011/12 CSEW self-completion module on intimate violence showed that a greater proportion of women (7%) reported being victims of intimate violence than men (5%).
    • Findings from the child component of the 2011/12 CSEW showed that, in the 12 months prior to interview, a smaller proportion of girls (aged 10 to 15) reported being victims of violence than boys (5% per cent versus 11%).
    • Data from the Homicide Index showed that fewer females (201) than males (435) were victims of homicide in 2010/11. As in the previous four years, a greater proportion of female than male victims knew the principal suspect (78% and 57% respectively in 2010/11).

    Women as suspects

    Fewer than one in five arrests recorded by the police in 2010/11 and in the preceding four years involved females. Key findings:

    • Between 2006/07 and 2010/11, there was an 8% reduction in the number of arrests by police forces in England and Wales (from 1,482,156 to 1,360,451). There was a 13% decrease for females and a 7% decrease for males.

    Women as defendants

    Data on out of court disposals and court proceedings showed some differences in the types of disposals issued to males and females, and also in sentence lengths.

    These may relate to a range of factors including variations in the types of offences committed.

    Key findings:

    • In 2011, females accounted for 24% of the 127,530 PNDs and 24% of the 231,483 cautions administered to individuals of known gender. Retail theft (under £200) was the most common offence type for which females were issued a PND (54% of PNDs issued to females), and drunk and disorderly for males (31% of PNDs issued to males).
    • Overall, 1,246,320 persons of known gender were convicted and sentenced at all courts in 2011; again 24% were female and 76% were male.
    • Theft and handling stolen goods (which includes shoplifting) was the most common indictable offence group for which both females and males were sentenced at all courts between 2007 and 2011 (52% of females and 33% of males sentenced for indictable offences in 2011).
    • Overall, a higher proportion of all males than all females were sentenced to immediate custody in 2011 (10% versus 3%), and females more commonly received a fine (77% versus 61% of males). These patterns were also consistent in the four preceding years.
    • The average custodial sentence length (ACSL) for all indictable offences was consistently higher for males than for females between 2007 and 2011 (in 2011, 17.7 months for males compared to 11.6 months for females).

    Women as offenders: under supervision or in custody

    Across the five year period, there were substantially fewer women than men both under supervision and in prison custody. A greater proportion of women were also serving shorter sentences than men, which is again likely to be attributable to a range of factors including differences in the offence types committed by men and women. Key findings:

    • In 20

    🌍 Dataset Description

    This dataset provides detailed information about criminal incidents, capturing various characteristics of both the offenders and victims. It includes records of crimes along with demographic details such as age, gender, race, and the status of the individuals involved. The data also contains information on the disposition of the case (whether it was closed or open) and the nature of the crime.

    The dataset covers a wide range of crime categories such as theft, vandalism, violence, sexual crimes, and drug/weapon-related offenses. This allows for an in-depth analysis of criminal activities, their impact on different demographics, and potential correlations between various factors such as age, gender, and the type of crime committed.

    📊 Columns:

    • Disposition: The current status of the case (Closed or Open).
    • OffenderStatus: The status of the offender (e.g., ARRESTED).
    • Offender_Race: The race of the offender (e.g., BLACK, WHITE, ASIAN, etc.).
    • Offender_Gender: The gender of the offender (MALE or FEMALE).
    • Offender_Age: The age of the offender (numerical value).
    • PersonType: Type of person involved in the case (e.g., VICTIM, REPORTING PERSON, INTERVIEW).
    • Victim_Race: The race of the victim (e.g., BLACK, WHITE, ASIAN, etc.).
    • Victim_Gender: The gender of the victim (MALE or FEMALE).
    • Victim_Age: The age of the victim (numerical value).
    • Victim_Fatal_Status: Indicates if the victim’s injuries were fatal or non-fatal.
    • Report Type: Type of report filed (e.g., Supplemental Report, Incident Report).
    • Category: The category of crime (e.g., Theft, Vandalism, Violence, etc.).

    🔍 Use Cases:

    This dataset is ideal for analyzing criminal incidents, studying the relationship between various demographic factors and crime types, and performing predictive modeling for crime occurrence. It is useful for investigating crime patterns and trends, assessing how crime impacts different groups, and can assist in law enforcement resource allocation and policy-making. The data can also be utilized in machine learning applications to classify or predict crime outcomes based on offender and victim details.

    Description

    Intimate partner and non-intimate partner victims of police-reported violent crime and traffic offences causing bodily harm or death, by age and gender of victim c (1, 2)Frequency: AnnualTable: 35-10-0202-01Release date: 2023-11-21Geography: Canada, Province or territory, Census metropolitan area, Census metropolitan area partTable Corrections: Date Note On December 10, 2021, the 2019 and 2020 data were revised as a result of corrections made to the populations used to calculate rates per 100 000 population. Footnotes: 1 In general, for police-reported incidents that involve violations against the person, a victim record is collected for each victim involved in the incident. If an individual is a victim in multiple incidents in the same reference year, that individual will be counted as one victim for each incident. Some victims experience violence over a period of time, sometimes years, all of which may be considered by the police to be part of one continuous incident and are counted as a single victim. Victim records are not required for all violent violations, but are accepted, for some violent offences such as uttering threats and criminal harassment. 2 Data are from the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR2) Trend Database, which contains historical data that permit the analysis of trends since 2009 in the characteristics of incidents, and accused and victim characteristics, such as age, gender and accused–victim relationship. This database includes respondents accounting for 99% of the population of Canada. 3 A census metropolitan area (CMA) consists of one or more neighbouring municipalities situated around a major urban core. A CMA must have a total population of at least 100,000, of which 50,000 or more live in the urban core. To be included in the CMA, other adjacent municipalities must have a high degree of integration with the central urban core, as measured by commuting flows derived from census data. A CMA typically comprises more than one police service. CMA populations have been adjusted to follow policing boundaries. The Oshawa CMA is excluded from this analysis owing to the incongruity between the police service jurisdictional boundaries and the CMA boundaries. Belleville and Lethbridge became CMAs as of the 2016 Census. In 2022, coverage for each CMA was virtually 100%, except in Toronto (90%) and Hamilton (75%). As a result, counts and rates may differ from information from other sources. 4 Victim age is calculated based on the end date of an incident, as reported by the police. Some victims experience violence over a period of time, sometimes years, all of which may be considered by the police to be part of one continuous incident. 5 Excludes the portion of Halton Regional Police Service that polices the Hamilton census metropolitan area. As a result, counts and rates may differ from information from other sources. 6 The category “age of victim unknown” includes victims whose ages were reported as 80 years and older, but were identified as possible instances of miscoding, as well as victims in Quebec whose ages were unknown but were miscoded as 0. 7 Rates are calculated on the basis of 100,000 population in each age and gender group unless otherwise noted for specific relationships. Populations based on July 1 estimates from Statistics Canada, Centre for Demography. Rates for victims with unknown age or unknown gender are not available for any reference period, as population estimates cannot be applied to calculate rates where these elements are unknown. 9 The option for police to code victims as non-binary in the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Survey was implemented in 2018. Given that small counts of victims identified as “non-binary” may exist, the UCR aggregate data available to the public have been recoded to assign these counts to either “male” or “female,” in order to ensure the protection of confidentiality and privacy. Victims identified as non-binary have been assigned to either male or female based on the regional distribution of victims’ gender. 8 Includes victims aged 15 years and older who were victimized by current and former legally married spouses and common-law partners. Also includes victims aged 12 years and older of current and former boyfriends and girlfriends and other intimate relationships (i.e., those with whom they had a sexual relationship but for which none of the other relationship categories apply). Spousal violence victims under the age of 15 years are included in the relationship category “other family.” Victims of non-spousal intimate partner violence under the age of 12 years are included in the relationship category “unknown relationship.” Rates for total victims are based on populations aged 12 years and older. Rates for other victim age groups are calculated on the basis of their corresponding age group populations.

Description

The graph shows the number of violent crime victims in the United States by gender from 2015 to 2025. The x-axis represents the years, while the y-axis indicates the number of male and female victims reported annually. Male victim counts range from a low of 181,851 in 2015 to a peak of 580,445 in 2023, while female victim counts range from 165,060 in 2015 to a high of 531,872 in 2023. Both genders show a consistent upward trend from 2015 to 2023, followed by a sharp drop in 2025. The data illustrates parallel trends for both male and female victims across the observed period.
