Commercial Victimization Surveys, 1972-1975 [United States]: Cities Sample
The National Crime Surveys, of which these Commercial
Victimization Surveys are a part, were conducted to obtain current and
reliable measures of serious crime in the United States. The
Commercial Victimization Surveys are restricted to coverage of
burglary and robbery incidents. They include all types of commercial
establishments as well as political, cultural, and religious
organizations. The survey includes a series of questions about the
business, e.g., type and size, form of ownership, insurance, security,
and break-in and robbery characteristics. Time and place, weapon,
injury, entry evidence, offender characteristics, and stolen property
data were collected for each of the incidents. Data on both victimized
and nonvictimized establishments in 26 different cities were collected
during 1972, 1973, and 1974. In the 1975 survey, data from the 13
cities surveyed during 1972 and 1973 were collected again.
