I didn't know that Eurostat now has crime statistics for most of Europe. The latest numbers are from 2008, the 2009 numbers should be out in November.

Take a look:

Crimes recorded by the police - Total crime



Crimes recorded by the police - Homicide



Prison population



Number of police officers

Why exactly are the murder rates so high in Turkey and the Baltics ?

Very interesting if we compare the 2008 data for the EU-27 with the US:

EU-27: 6500 homicides, population 500 million, rate per 100.000 = 1.3 homicides

US: 16.500 homicides, population 304 million, rate per 100.000 = 5.4 homicides

Here's Canada (incl. a good map and the numbers):



Prince Edward Island is orange because it was murder-less in 2010.

Alcoholism, poverty, no work and an ongoing loss of traditional lifestyle for the Indigenous peoples there. Therefore they are depressed and kill each other.

It should be noted that while the US crime rate has been higher than Europe for decades, it has been falling fast of late:

(map)

The US is approaching 1950's level crime rates on some indicators, which would be an all-time low.

At least the Republicans cannot run on the "Black man elected President in 2008, crime went up"-platform next year.

Austria now has the lowest homicide rate in Europe (or better said in 2009) ... Smiley
