But yet that stat can be deceiving considering it is based on reported crime and not actual crimes. If the people don't trust the police department or that the police department will investigate it and prosecute it then people don't report the crimes. In a place where people have trust in the police department and the courts you have a higher percentage of crimes reported. So, even though it is a stat that can be compared you also have to read between the lines to see if it is accurate or if it is people under reporting crimes.
