Structure of crime in Prague

Publication

Abstract

The aim of the map sheet is to assess spatial differentiation and changes in recorded crime structure in Prague in 1995-2013. The classification of crime is taken from the tactical and statistical classification used by the police with an emphasis on general crime consisting of violent and property crime and their detailed structure.

The maps use classic crime indices (number of recorded criminal offences per number of inhabitants), detection (share of criminal offences in which the identity of the perpetrator is known) and typologies based on the indices from the 90s to the present time.
