Crime Trends

The national crime recognition rate has seen an uptick for the first time in 20 years during 2022, with forecasts suggesting a further increase into 2023 and 2024. Notably, the apprehension of juveniles involved in criminal activities surged by approximately 36% from 2021 to 2022. The rise in organized shoplifting, online resale of stolen goods, and sophisticated criminal tactics pose significant challenges to retail security efforts.
