Definition and caveats

Crimes recorded by the Police Service of Northern Ireland per 1,000 residents in each policing district in the financial year, as published in Table 9.3 of the annual recorded crime tables, using NISRA mid-year population estimates.

Doesn’t measure: Crime that was not reported to or recorded by the police, the risk to any individual, or crime in England, Wales or Scotland. The denominator is the resident population, not the number of people present in a district during the day.
