- catalog abstract "The National Crime Surveys were designed by the Bureau of Justice Statistics to obtain detailed information about crime, its victims and consequences. The data were collected by the United States Census Bureau from 1972 to 1975 in 26 different cities. Interviews were conducted with household members in each household sampled and recorded detailed information about each household or personal victimization. The data include type of crime, description of offender, severity of crime, injuries or losses, and demographic characteristics of the household. Interviews were administered to different samples in 1972 and 1975 in Atlanta, Baltimore, Cleveland, Dallas, Denver, Newark, Portland, and St. Louis. In 1973 and 1975, interviews were conducted in Chicago, Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and New York. In 1974 only, interviews were conducted in Boston, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Houston, Miami, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, New Orleans, Oakland, Pittsburgh, San Diego, San Francisco, and Washington, D.C. The Archive has created a person-level subset file from the complete sample. This subset was created in order to provide users with a file which is easier to work with but preserves the characteristics of the Cities Sample data. In creating this person-level file a full sample of victims and a ten percent sample of non-victims for up to four incidents was employed. Thus, a maximum of four incidents per victim have been retained in the subset file: The remainder of the incidents were dropped from the file. In the entire Cities Sample, approximately 97% of the respondents in each quarter report four or fewer incidents. These data are in a rectangular, or flattened, file so that for each incident retrieved for a respondent all of the variables in the incident record are repeated as many times as there are incidents. For respondents with fewer than four incidents, the incident record variables will contain missing data where incidents did not occur. The person-level files are appropriate for the analysis of victims or personal victimizations.".
