Police-reported crime in rural and urban areas in the Canadian provinces, 2021 / by Samuel Perreault.: CS85-002/43-2E-PDF

"This Juristat article analyzes these issues using police-reported data from the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Survey, in addition to self-reported data from the General Social Survey (GSS) on Canadians’ Safety (Victimization). While crime is also an important issue in the territories, this article focuses on crime in rural areas in the provinces. Overall, crime rates in the territories are well above the national average (Moreau, 2022), and most territorial communities are rural. Therefore, including territories in the following analyses would disproportionally impact overall rural crime rates. As such, separate analyses would result in a more accurate depiction of crime for both areas"--Page 4.
