Victimisation of crime; region, 2012

The Safety Monitor (VM) is an annual population survey on safety, quality of life and victimisation. Attention is also paid to nuisance in the neighbourhood, disrespectful behaviour, prevention measures, the functioning of the police and municipal security policy. As a result, figures are obtained in a clear way about the (experience of) security at both national, regional and (lower) local levels. This table focuses on the victimisation of common crime in the 12 months preceding the investigation. These are traditional offences such as violence, property crimes and vandalism, as well as computer crime or cybercrime. The data is shown for the Netherlands in total and for the 25 police regions. The Safety Monitor is a sample survey. This means that the figures shown are estimates, with respect to which reliability margins apply. These margins are also included in the table. The figures refer to persons aged 15 years or older, unless otherwise stated. The survey was conducted in the last quarter of the year. Data available from 2012. Status of the figures: The data is final. When are new figures coming? None, this table has been discontinued. This table is followed by crime victimisation; region. See paragraph 3.
