Incident counts in this table do not match incident counts in Table 9 due to methodological differences in matching incident and victim records from the Uniform Crime Reporting Survey.
Note(s):
Data in this table are from respondents to the Incident-based Uniform Crime Reporting Survey in 2007 only and therefore will not match numbers from either the Aggregate Uniform Crime Reporting Survey or the Aggregated Incident-based Uniform Crime Reporting Survey.
