Editing Robbery (section)

== Robbery statistics ==

=== Robberies by country ===

The [[United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime]] notes "that when using the figures, any cross-national comparisons should be conducted with caution because of the differences that exist between the legal definitions of offences in countries, or the different methods of offence counting and recording". Also, not every crime is reported, meaning two things: (1) robbery rates appear lower than they actually are, and (2) the percentage of crime that is not reported is higher in some countries than others; for example, in one country 86% of the robberies were reported, whereas in another country only 67% of the robberies were reported. Crime also varies by certain neighborhoods or areas in each country, so a nationwide rate does not indicate the danger or safety everywhere in that country. A 1983 study by the Department of Justice estimated that the amount of robberies in the US at schools alone may reach one million a year, exceeding the National Crime Survey reported estimate.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.ojp.gov/ncjrs/virtual-library/abstracts/robbery-united-states-analysis-recent-trends-and-patterns | title=Robbery in the United States - an Analysis of Recent Trends and Patterns &#124; Office of Justice Programs }}</ref><ref>{{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ROTKAgAAQBAJ&dq=%221+million+robberies%22+%22us%22&pg=PT77 | title=Juvenile Delinquency: Theory, Practice, and Law | isbn=9781285974705 | last1=Siegel | first1=Larry J. | last2=Welsh | first2=Brandon C. | date=January 2014 | publisher=Cengage Learning }}</ref>
