520 |a This report provides detailed information about crimes committed against Hispanics from 1979 to 1986 based on the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics' National Crime Survey (NCS). The rate of violent crime committed against Hispanics each year surveyed is examined and compared to that for non-Hispanics. The demographic characteristics of the Hispanic population, based on the NCS, are presented. The following characteristics of Hispanic and non-Hispanic victims are described: (1) education; (2) occupation; (3) home ownership; and (4) location of household. Based on this information, and given the higher representation of Hispanics in high-crime-risk categories, when Hispanic and non-Hispanic victims with the same characteristics are compared, the Hispanics' higher overall rate of criminal victimization often disappears. An analysis of the following aspects of crime against Hispanics is presented: (1) place where violent crimes occurred; (2) who committed them; (3) outcomes of violent crimes; and (4) whether they were single-offender or multiple-offender victimizations. The major finding from this analysis is that, compared to other groups, Hispanics are victimized particularly by robbery. A discussion of the methodology used by the NCS to collect data is included. Data are presented on 18 tables. A list of Bureau of Justice publications, available free to the public, is appended. (JS)
