Public safety :
Part 2 offenses, 2007

Part 2 offenses include such crimes as assaults other than aggravated assault, forgery, fraud, narcotics, weapons violations, driving under the influence (DUI), vandalism and stolen property.

The ratio used for this map is the number of incidents per 100,000 residents. This ratio makes it possible to compare the crime rates in counties with very small populations to those with very large populations. It should not, however, be confused with the actual number of incidents reported, which can be much smaller or much larger, depending on the population of the county.
