Judicial Data on Crime: Introduction and Methodology
This section provides with a summary of the main data on criminal court proceedings at a national and regional level, using the numbers published by the Spanish National Statistical Institute (INE) on its website (www.ine.es) as a reference. Our goal is to make information more accessible so it can be directly and readily consulted for a wide range of reasons.
This summary includes charts and graphs that offer absolute numbers, percentages and crime rates based on data provided by INE. The methodology used by INE to manage the published data can be found on its website. Please refer to this document for further and more detailed information. Crimes have been classified into different criminal categories for a better analysis and presentation.
• All the crime rates presented are calculated per 1000 inhabitants; each rate specifies the population group selected for its measurement.
All the charts and graphs published on this site, except for those where an original source is specified, have been made by the Institute of Criminology of Málaga based on data provided by INE.
