Findings on perceptions and experiences of anti-social behaviour based on household responses to the 2011/12 Crime Survey for England and Wales and business responses to the 2012 Commercial Victimisation Survey

Contains the main detailed reference tables. The data contained in these tables are from two sources: the Crime Survey for England and Wales (CSEW) and the Commercial Victimisation Survey (CVS). The appendix tables accompany the release 'Short Story on Anti-Social Behaviour, 2011/12' published by the Office for National Statistics on 11 April 2013.

The Crime Survey for England and Wales (CSEW, previously known as the British Crime Survey), is a victimisation survey in which people resident in households in England and Wales are asked about their experiences of crime in the 12 months prior to interview. The tables presented here are based on the findings from CSEW interviews conducted in the 2011/12 financial year and give a picture of the nature of bicycle-theft, burglary, household theft, personal theft, vandalism, vehicle-related theft and violent crime. These tables expand on the information provided in the main release 'Crime Statistics, Period Ending March 2012' and should be read alongside this earlier publication.

The figures presented here are from the 2011/12 Crime Survey for England and Wales (CSEW). Bicycle theft covers thefts of bicycles belonging to the respondent or any member of the respondent’s household. This category does not include every bicycle theft, as some may be stolen during the course of another offence (for example, burglary) and are therefore classified as such in the CSEW.

The figures presented here are from the 2011/12 Crime Survey for England and Wales (CSEW). Personal and other theft includes: theft from the person - which includes snatch theft from the person (force may have been used to snatch property that the victim was carrying) and stealth theft (respondent was unaware of property they were carrying or near to them being stolen) and attempted snatch or stealth theft, and other theft of personal property - which includes theft of items the respondent was not holding or carrying at the time, for example, items left in cloakrooms, and where the respondent was not in their home during the incident.

The figures presented here are from the 2011/12 Crime Survey for England and Wales (CSEW). Since January 2009 the CSEW has asked children aged 10 to 15 resident in households in England and Wales about their experience of crime in the previous 12 months. Refinements to the questions and definitions used in the questionnaire mean that direct comparisons between years and between adult and child data cannot be made. The Children aged 10 to 15 Nature of Crime tables include data on where and when incidents happened, information about offenders, the victim's perception of the incident, whether the incident was reported, whether injuries were sustained or weapons were used in violent incidents and what items were stolen in theft related incidents.
