Summary:This report is on the survey of residents in three city police precincts, on their experience as crime victims, contacts with criminal justice agencies, and fear of harm from violent crime. It was found that the incidence of crime in these communities was several times the magnitude indicated by police reports. Several hypotheses are offered to explain this phenomenon. The data also indicated that the residents were extremely fearful of victimization and that these fears had marked effects on their lives staying home at night, not venturing into parks, installing stouter locks, and moving to better neighborhoods. The respondents were also found to substantially rely on the police and to have considerable goodwill toward them.
