Victimization in the U.S.

Your initial post should be 100 words in length. 

This week we read in depth about the NCVS and the UCR and the victimization data that they provide. 

This information is important to victimologists during the course of their studies of victimology. 

Looking at the graphs presented in chapter 4 of Andrew Karmen’s “Crime Victims: An Introduction to Victimology” you notice that all of the NCVS and UCR data show that victimizations have been decreasing since the 1990s. 

Identify and discuss two reasons you feel could be possible for the decrease in crime and victimization.
