1. How do data in the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) differ from data in the Uniform Crime Report (URC)?

In general, the NCVS reveals more crime than the UCR
In some cases, a crime may occur by accident or through a mistake. For example, if someone is driving within the speed limits and obeying all laws but hits and kills a child who runs into the street, the individual will generally not be held accountable because the person didn't mean to commit the act and couldn't prevent it.
Another source of crime data other than the Uniform Crime Report (URC) that is often used by researchers is the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS).
The Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) include reports of violent crime (murder, assault, rape, robbery), property crime (arson, burglary, auto theft), and other crimes (fraud, prostitution, gambling, disorderly conduct).
