FOREWORD

The prevention and control of crime in our society is a responsibility that is not confined
to those actively involved in the criminal justice system. Crime is a social disease,
affecting everyone. All of society is concerned with its control.

To provide an effective defense against crime it is necessary for every citizen to unite
with local authorities. The extent of crime depends on its ability to flourish in our communities. If authorities receive the support of the community in creating an environment hostile to crime, that ability is greatly reduced.

The purpose of this publication is to expose the nature and extent of crime in Arizona.
Ideally, this information will prompt citizen action against crime.

This publication is the product of the combined efforts of Arizona's law enforcement
agencies. Without their cooperation, the collection of the data here presented would
be impossible.

The Department of Public Safety strives to maintain a crime reporting system patterned
after that established by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. It is only through the use
of such a comprehensive system that crime information can be compiled and distributed.

It is hoped that this publication will stimulate the concern of all Arizonans.

RAPE, ROBBERY, ASSAULT INCREASE

Violence Up 77°
In First Quarter
By DAVID PEARSON
The year began with a bloody murder in a university apartment area
known as "Sin City." Since then
violent crime has continued to rise in
alarming proportions Tempe.
In fact, the Tempe Police Department reported today That violent
crime in the city rose 77 percent
during the first three months of 1978
as compared to the previous year.
Rape, robbery
ry a assaults all increased during the three-month
period with murder hording steady.

The only murder this year was
that of Arizona State University
coed Deana Bowdoin in January. But on the average in Tempe
during the first quarter of the year
ry every three
there was a robbery
days; a rape every eight days; and
an assault ever 1.3 days.
It is the most violent start any
year in the history of the city.
—There were 11 rapes in the first
quarter of 1978 as compared to six
the year before; an increase of 83
percent.

—Robberies increased 82 percent
with 31 holdups in three months cornpared to 17 in 1977.
—Sixty-seven persons were
assaulted this year compared to 38
in 1977; an increase of 76 percent.
Overall there were 110 violent
crimes in Tempe during January,
February and March. Last year
there were 62 violent incidents.
Going along with this hiige increase in violence was an even
larger rise in assaults on policemen.
Seven officers were assaulted in the

three-month period while only two in
1977.
Veteran officers privately say that_
they expect the number. of assaults
on officers to increase.
Even though violent crib* rose
drastically, the total crime. picture
was not so pronounced. Figures
provided by police show a modest 2.
percent increase.
That's rise of 38 reported crimes
in the three-month period, or 1,936to

The Arizona Uniform
Crime Reporting System

1

INTRODUCTION

OBJECTIVES OF THE SYSTEM

The second year of publication of the AUCR
Report adds a new dimension to crime reporting in Arizona. The capability of delineating two years of crime statistics will aid
the user in defining crime rates and making
analyses and comparisons.

The scope of this system shall be to produce
a reliable set of state quantitative crime statistics which measure the extent, fluctuation
and distribution of serious crime in Arizona.

The AUCR Section is in a continual process
of refining and adding more meaningful
information to assist the users in their fight
against crime.

The extent of the conditions and performance of the AUCR Section, Department of
Public Safety, shall be limited to the intent
set forth by Statute (ARS 41-1750).

LIMITATIONS OF THE PUBLICATION
HISTORY OF ARIZONA UNIFORM
CRIME REPORTING
The AUCR System first began receiving
quantitative crime statistics from Arizona
police agencies during January 1975. By the
close of the calendar year 1976, 72 out of a
possible 87 (83%) Arizona police agencies
were contributing to the AUCR program. An
accurate estimate of the exact influence
which the missing reports from the 15 nonreporting and 10 partially reporting agencies
have on this statistical publication is difficult
to assess. These nonreporting and partially
reporting agencies represent a combined
census population of 81,577.
The evaluation of the significance of the
crime statistical resource must be made by
the local community institutions, organizations and police agencies from within the
state. These segments of society can determine the worth of the AUCR system by their
applied use of the resource in deterring, reducing and preventing community crime.
Only then can this system assume that it has
begun to meet its stated intent.

INTENT OF THE SYSTEM
The intent of the Arizona Uniform Crime Reporting (AUCR) System is to: supply Arizona
communities, agencies, institutions and
organizations with a resource of quantitative
crime statistics which they can use, efficiently
and effectively, to deter, reduce and prevent
crime.

2

The statistics listed in this publication are the
most accurate data currently available.

The following factors have a major influence
on the statistics presented in this publication.

1.

Crime figures presented in this publication are police statistics as distinguished from judicial or penal statistics.

2.

Actual crimes represent violations of
Arizona statutes.

3.

Some police jurisdictions overlap.

4.

Crime rates, as used in the AUCR program, are based on census-fixed residential populations of police jurisdictions.

5.

6.

7.

Arizona Indians living on reservations
are not counted in AUCR population
figures, although they are included in
the state's population figures.
Some juveniles are informally handled
which affects the accuracy of the juvenile report input.
Of the Arizona police agencies, 29 percent did not submit twelve full months
of AUCR statistical information.

PROCEDURES AND METHODS
Each contributing agency is responsible for
compiling its own reports. To aid in this endeavor the Arizona UCR guide manual is
supplied to all contributors. This manual outlines reporting procedures in detail and is
complete with examples and illustrations.
Additionally, the AUCR Field Representatives
provide additional instruction and clarification as required. Each agency is supplied
with a complete set of forms yearly. These
forms are used by the agencies when they
submit their reports to the AUCR system.

VERIFICATION
When the AUCR Section receives a report
from a contributing agency, the report is
examined for accurate mathematical
computations and offense classifications.
After the contributed reports are verified,
reviewed and recorded, the statistical information is processed and transcribed
onto magnetic tape. This statistical information is reproduced on data printout
forms and redistributed to the respective
agencies. The statistics are also sent to the
Federal Bureau of Investigation's National
Uniform Crime Reporting center in Washington, D. C.

CONCLUSION
Crime exists as a local community problem
in Arizona. The intent of AUCR is to offer
these local communities a basic resource of
quantitative crime statistics that could be
used by them to deter, reduce and prevent
crime.
The interpretation of crime statistics frequently results in a controversy as to the
accuracy of the comparison and how these
statistics were compiled. We ask that great
care be taken in analysis and interpretation.

Portrait of Arizona
Arizona is the sixth largest state in the United
States with 113,909 square miles. Much of this
area is owned by the Federal Government in the
form of Indian reservations, National Parks, and
National Forests. Arizona is 70% federally owned;
27% of that federal ownership is in the form of
Indian reservations. The state owns 12%, leaving
18% to private ownership.
Arizona has two principal geographical locations
containing a dense conglomerate of people - the
city of Tucson with 340,927 people, and Phoenix,
the capital city, with a population of 669,005.
More than 45 percent of the 2,270,000 people
who live in Arizona live in these two cities.

One of the unique characteristics of Arizona is its
temperate dimate. This factor has contributed to
the state's rapid population and economic
growth. The population median age is 27.4 years
while the median age for the United States is 28.9
years. The state's population density is20 persons
per square mile, with a total population of
2,270,000. This figure indudes the Indian reservations within the state.
With reference to the economic aspects of the
state, manufacturing produces more income for
Arizonans than any other facet of our economy.
Copper is the second largest industry, agricultural
production third, and tourism fourth.
These factors should be considered when reviewing the statistical information presented in
this publication.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
QUANTITATIVE CRIME STATISTICS The use of numbers to measure and
express a mathematical quantity. This
phrase implies results expressed in numbers rather than descriptive phrases.
CRIME ANALYSIS Statements relating to
type and nature of crimes and its rate of
occurrence and distribution in Arizona, but
not comparisons of agencies or causes.
CRIME RATE — A figure which represents
the number of crimes committed known to
the police for each 1,000 population.
CRIME INDEX — Or Index Crimes, refers
to the seven major crimes or Part I crimes,
which are: Homicide and Non-Negligent
Manslaughter, Rape, Robbery, Aggravated
Assault, Burglary, Larceny/Theft, and Auto
Theft, and Auto Theft. Note: The "Other
Assaults" - simple, not aggravated are not
Part I, or Index Crimes, but are collected
on the Return A for quality control
purposes, and to give a complete picture of
total assault activity.
RISK FACTOR — The mathematical probability of being a victim of a crime based on
the occurrence rate by population group.
PERCENT OF DISTRIBUTION — The
numeric value expressed in percent of the
total number of occurrences.
CLEARANCE BY ARREST — The perpetrator of an offense has been apprehended.
CLEARANCE BY EXCEPTIONAL MEANS The person(s) who committed the offense
has been identified, their whereabouts are
known but for some reason beyond police
control they cannot be arrested. There
must also be enough information to
support the charge.
