Deviation from model calculated value for reported violent crimes, (Less than=2, equal number=1, more than=0)
Description
This is a development key figure, see questions and answers on kolada.se for more information. Deviation from model calculated value for reported violent crimes. The model calculation is based on various structural factors in the municipality. The model calculation is compared to the indicator indicating reported violent crimes. The data are taken from the Swedish Crime Prevention Council’s official crime statistics and highlight the crime based on the crimes reported to and handled by police, customs, prosecutors, courts and prison services. Crimes that are not reported are therefore not included in the criminal statistics. Offences that have occurred before, but were reported during the accounting year are included in the statistics, as well as offences reported in Sweden but committed abroad. To a lesser extent, there are also reported offences that in later investigations do not turn out to be a crime reported. The category of violent crime includes murder, manslaughter, child murder and ill-treatment with and without fatal outcome, rape including aggravated rape, gross violation of peace, gross violation of women’s rights, violence against officials, and robbery including aggravated robbery. The number of reported offences has then been adjusted with data from Statistics Sweden on the population of each municipality. Three-year average (year T-2 to year T).
