Canadians' perceptions of personal safety and crime, 2009 / by Shannon Brennan.: CS85-002/31-11E-PDF

"Using data from the 2009 General Social Survey (GSS) on Victimization, this Juristat article examines the perceptions of personal safety and crime of Canadians 15 years and older living in the 10 provinces. More specifically, it looks at their overall level of satisfaction with their personal safety from crime over time at the national, provincial and census metropolitan area levels. In addition, this article examines Canadians' feelings of safety when performing various activities in their communities, and their use of crime prevention techniques in the previous 12 months. Finally, Canadians' perceptions of the prevalence of crime and social disorder in their neighbourhoods are explored"--Page 6.
