Crime Victimization Data

Description

This dataset, reported and analyzed by Kadane (1985), comes from the National Crime Survey conducted by the U.S. Bureau of the Census. Occupants of housing units were interviewed to determine whether they had been victimized by crime in the preceding six-month period. Six months later, the units were visited again to determine whether the occupants had been victimized during the intervening months. Missing values for various reasons occurred at both occasions.
