"""""'----.--~ ,",..,Sourcebook of Criminal Justice Statistics 1983Table 3.14 Estimated number of personal incidents, by type of victimization and place of occurrence, United States, 1981 a'1..,Nature and Distribution of Known OffensesNJTE: See NJTE, Table 3.1. Because a personal incident may involve more than one victim, thenumber of victimizations can be expected to exceed the number of incidents. Beginning in 1979,new response categories for the "place of occurrence" were used. Because of this change, cautionshould be observed in comporing the results of surveys after 1978 with earlier years. For surveymethodology, definitions of terms, and a discussion of changes in the 1979 interview schedule, seeAppendix II.Place of occurrenceInside non-Inside home or Vacation home, residential building,Totol other building hotel. mgtel ~ar horne [!ublic conve)!anceType of victimization Number Percent Number Percent N.Jmber Percent N.Jmber Percent N.Jmber PercentRape and attempted rape 166,745 100 43,9% 26 3,344 2 6,993 4 15,877 10Robbery 1,201,127 100 142,%6 12 5,933 0 99,492 8 142,860 12Robbery and attempted robberywith Injury 397,291 100 49,264 12 2,787 I 25,850 7 43,%8 IISerious assault 184,564 100 26,667 14 2,787 2 15,147 8 21,163 IIMinor assault 212,727 100 22,598 II 0 X 10,704 5 22,805 IIRobbery without injury 506,709 100 73,646 15 0 X 46,085 9 67,931 13Attempted robbery without injury 297,126 100 20,056 7 3,146 I 27,557 9 30,%0 10Assault 4,255,122 100 492,5% 12 12,935 0 709,%3 17 1180,233Aggravated assault 1,444,984 100 143,029 10 3,105 0 216,700 15 182,878"13With injury 482,947 100 44,550 9 0 X 77,840 16 59,3% 12Attempted assault with weapon 962,036 100 98,479 10 3,105 0 138,860 14 123,482 13Simple assault 2,810,138 100 349,568 12 9,829 0 493,263 18 297,355 IIWlth injury 736,592 100 134,719 18 0 X 103,014 14 56,759 8Attempted assault without weapon 2,073,546 100 214,849 10 9,829 0 390,249 19 240,5% 12Personal larceny with contact 589,351 100 10,690 2 4,470 I 241,170 41 21,739 4Purse snatching 139,189 100 0 X 0 X 15,952 II 15,945 IIAttempted purse snatching 46,788 100 B B B B B B B BPocket picking 403,374 100 10,690 3 4,470 I 215,029 53 5,794 IPersonal larceny without contact 14,563,%3 100 0 X 142,071 I 2,838,714 19 0 XaSubcategories may not sum to total because of rounding.Source:Table constructed by 5a.RCEBro< staff from data provided by the U.S. Deportment of Justice, Bureau of Justice Statistics.i !~~"Ii~'IifiStreet, park,field, etc.Number Percent63,977 38691,923 58227,527 57107,790 58119,737 56281,522 56182,874 621,717,442 40656,242 4S218,749 45437,493 451,061,200 3!:l266,564 36794,637 38235,854 4097,134 70B B103,934 266,652,958 46In~ideNumberschoolPercent1,503 I31,4
