Notes:

1. Upper and lower estimates are based on 95% confidence intervals.
2. Rate for all survey crime cannot be calculated because the combination of household and personal crimes cannot be weighted.
3. For violence, theft from the person, assault, robbery, other personal theft and all personal offences, rates are quoted per 10,000 adults. For acquisitive crime, vandalism, housebreaking, vehicle offences, bicycle theft, other household theft and all household offences, rates are quoted per 10,000 households.
4. For the distinction between crimes which are 'comparable with police' and 'other survey crimes', see Appendix D.
