The population is the total number of reported cases in Enugu State for the period of 2000 to 2009. Secondary data was used for this study. The data was collected from the Police headquarters, Enugu.
Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and t-distribution was used to answer some of the research questions as well as determine the hypothesis set for the studymost prevalent crime in the state and if the rate of crime against persons is the same with crime against property.
