Understanding crime patterns and trends through data analysis is crucial for effective
prevention strategies and optimizing law enforcement resources. Crime analysis involves
evaluating historical data to allocate resources efficiently and improve apprehension of
criminals. Utilizing tools like artificial intelligence (AI) and visualization enhances the
process by providing advanced search capabilities. AI techniques, especially machine
learning, are applied to crime data to reveal hidden correlations and support decision-making
for arrests and resource management. Research shows the effectiveness of predictive machine
learning models in forecasting crimes, including Cyber Scam, Cyberstalking, and Cyber
Hacking on social media platforms. This report aims to analyze an Excel dataset of crime
records to extract insights benefiting law enforcement, policymakers, and community leaders
in enhancing public safety.

This report delves into a detailed examination of crime data in the Philippines, aiming to
provide valuable insights that can help law enforcement and community leaders develop
more effective crime prevention strategies and optimize resource allocation. The analysis
focuses on a specific time period and geographic region, utilizing an Excel dataset that
includes information on crime types, dates, locations, and outcomes. The analysis utilizes
Excel tools such as pivot tables, charts, and statistical functions to categorize and interpret the
data effectively. A key aspect of the analysis is to identify temporal and spatial patterns in
criminal activity. By looking at trends over time, whether monthly, quarterly, or annually, the
report highlights any shifts or patterns in crime rates. Additionally, mapping out the
geographic distribution of crimes helps identify hotspot areas that may require more focused
attention. The analysis also aims to uncover significant trends in various types of crimes,
noting any increases or decreases, and to identify hotspots where crime is particularly
prevalent, enabling targeted interventions. The analysis also explores correlations between
crime rates and external factors such as socio-economic conditions or specific events. By
providing a comprehensive and insightful analysis of crime data, the report aims to contribute
to a deeper understanding of the criminal landscape of the Philippines. This knowledge will
be crucial for informing policy decisions, resource allocation, and the development of
effective strategies for promoting public safety and reducing crime.

METHODOLOGY

Cauayan Campus

The analysis of the crime data primarily utilizes Microsoft Excel as the tool for data
manipulation and visualization. Excel's built-in features, such as pivot tables, charts, and
statistical functions, are used to categorize, interpret, and present the data in a clear and
understandable way. This approach allows for a comprehensive examination of crime trends,
geographic patterns, and demographic factors.

While Excel provides a user-friendly and readily available platform for analyzing data, it
does have limitations. For example, Excel's statistical capabilities are relatively basic
compared to specialized statistical software like SPSS or R. This limits the ability to conduct
more complex analyses, such as multivariate regressions or time-series forecasting, which
could provide deeper insights into crime patterns. Additionally, Excel's limitations in
handling large datasets could pose a challenge if the crime data becomes extensive. Large
datasets may require specialized data management and analysis tools for efficient processing
and analysis. Finally, the accuracy and completeness of the crime data are crucial for the
validity of the analysis. Any inconsistencies, missing data, or errors in the dataset could
significantly impact the findings.

While the analysis relies heavily on Excel, it's important to acknowledge that the scope of the
analysis is limited by the available data. The dataset appears to be relatively small, and the
information provided is limited to basic crime types, dates, locations, and outcomes. Without
more detailed information on factors such as victim characteristics, crime motives, and
environmental influences, the analysis cannot provide a complete picture of the crime
landscape.

- The gender distribution among the recorded crimes shows a relatively even split
between females and males. The bar graph visually represents the breakdown of each crime
type by gender. It shows that while there are slight variations in the number of crimes
committed by each gender for different crime types, the overall distribution is balanced. For
example, while there are more females involved in Drug Offenses (87) than males (54), the
opposite is true for Burglary, with more males (76) than females (61). This suggests that both
genders are represented across the different crime types, indicating a need for crime
prevention strategies that address the unique vulnerabilities and risk factors of both males and
females.

- The age distribution varies significantly across different crime types. Drug Offenses
exhibit a relatively spread-out distribution with a peak around ages 23-25, indicating a higher
involvement of individuals in their early twenties. Burglary peaks at ages 20-22, while Theft
shows additional peaks around ages 30-32, suggesting a mix of younger and slightly older
individuals in theft cases. Assault presents a broader distribution with peaks at ages 20-22 and
30-32, Fraud shows a more uniform distribution with a slight peak at ages 23-25, and
Homicide and Vandalism have less distinct patterns but peak around ages 20-22. Overall,
younger individuals, especially those in their early twenties, are more commonly involved in
crimes like Burglary, Drug Offense, and Theft, while the age distribution for Assault, Fraud,
Homicide, and Vandalism is more varied, indicating a broader age range of individuals
involved in these crimes.

- The image clearly depicts a notable difference in the types of crimes committed by
individuals of different genders. Men are consistently arrested more frequently than women
across all listed crime types, as indicated by the higher counts under "male" compared to
"female" for each category. This gender disparity is most pronounced in violent crimes, with
examples like more females arrested for Assault than males, while the opposite is seen for
Robbery. A closer examination reveals that crimes with a higher number of male arrests
include Assault, Robbery, Vandalism, and Theft, while crimes like Burglary, Drug Offense,
and Fraud show a more balanced distribution between genders. It's crucial to recognize that
this data solely reflects arrests and not convictions. In summary, the image underscores a
significant divergence in the patterns of criminal behavior between men and women, with
men being arrested more frequently across various crime types, particularly in cases of
violent offenses.

16. Are younger individuals more likely to commit certain types of crimes compared to older
individuals?

- Yes, younger individuals are more likely to commit certain types of crimes compared
to older individuals. Here's a breakdown of the arrest rates by age group (Age) for different
crimes (Crime Type): The image shows a clear trend for property crimes. Arrest rates are
highest for theft, burglary, and vandalism among young adults between 18 and 24 years old.
These arrest rates then decline steadily as people age. For violent crimes, a similar pattern is
seen, with assault arrests peaking around 18-24 years old. Robbery arrests are more spread
out across age groups, with a slight increase between 21 and 27 years old. Drug offenses
show a possible double peak, with higher arrest rates for both young adults (18-24) and
middle-aged adults (35-44). Homicide arrests have a wider distribution across the age ranges

- Yes, younger individuals, particularly those in their early 20s (ages 18-25), seem to be
more likely to commit certain types of crimes compared to older individuals. The data shows
a higher frequency of "Burglary," "Drug Offense," and "Theft" among this age group.
However, it's important to remember that the data set is relatively small, so these findings
should be interpreted with caution. Further analysis with a larger dataset is needed to draw
more definitive conclusions.

Recommendations

The dataset provides valuable insights into crime trends and demographics,
highlighting several key areas for focus. First, the data reveals a higher frequency of crimes
like Burglary, Drug Offense, and Theft among individuals in their early 20s (ages 18-25),
suggesting a need for targeted prevention programs and interventions for this age group. This
could involve education about the consequences of crime, job training, and support for at-risk
youth. Furthermore, the significant disparity in female involvement in Drug Offenses
compared to males highlights the need for specific programs tailored to address the
underlying factors influencing this trend. Exploring social, economic, and cultural factors is
crucial. Additionally, analyzing geographic trends shows that certain locations, like
Downtown and Industrial Zone, have higher crime rates, prompting a need for enhanced
security measures and targeted crime prevention strategies in these areas. Understanding the
reasons behind high crime rates in specific provinces could help develop more effective
solutions. Moreover, the dataset emphasizes that certain crime types, like Burglary, Drug
Offense, and Theft, are more prevalent than others. Law enforcement and community
resources should focus on addressing these specific crime types through increased patrols,
improved community policing, and initiatives to reduce opportunities for these crimes.
Finally, the relatively small size of the current dataset limits the ability to draw definitive
conclusions, making it crucial to continue collecting and expanding the dataset to gain a more
comprehensive understanding of crime trends. Further analysis and research can help refine
prevention strategies and interventions. Effective crime prevention requires collaboration
between law enforcement, community organizations, and social services. Working together to
address the root causes of crime and provide support for individuals at risk can significantly
reduce crime rates. This could include partnerships between police departments, schools,
youth centers, and social service agencies.

The dataset offers a multifaceted view of crime trends in the Philippines, revealing
patterns across various demographics, geographic areas, and crime types. While there's a
relatively balanced distribution of crimes between males and females overall, a notable
disparity exists in Drug Offenses, where females have a significantly higher involvement rate.
This finding suggests the need for tailored programs and interventions that address the
specific factors driving female participation in drug-related crimes.

Furthermore, the data indicates a higher frequency of crimes like Burglary, Drug Offense, and
Theft among younger individuals, especially those in their early 20s (ages 18-25). This
underscores the importance of implementing targeted prevention programs and interventions
for this age group, potentially involving education about the consequences of crime, job
training, and support for at-risk youth.

Geographic analysis reveals that certain locations, such as Downtown and Industrial Zone,
have higher crime rates than others. This suggests a need for enhanced security measures and
targeted crime prevention strategies in these specific areas. Additionally, understanding the
reasons behind high crime rates in particular provinces could help develop more effective
solutions.

Moreover, the dataset highlights the prevalence of specific crime types, such as Burglary,
Drug Offense, and Theft, indicating that law enforcement and community resources should
prioritize addressing these crime categories. This could involve increased patrols, improved
community policing, and initiatives to reduce opportunities for these crimes.

However, the dataset's relatively small size limits the ability to draw definitive conclusions. It
is crucial to continue collecting data and expanding the dataset to gain a more comprehensive
understanding of crime trends in the Philippines. Further analysis and research can help
refine prevention strategies and interventions. Effective crime prevention also requires
collaboration between law enforcement, community organizations, and social services.
Working together to address the root causes of crime and provide support for individuals at
risk can significantly reduce crime rates. This could include partnerships between police
departments, schools, youth centers, and social service agencies. combines law enforcement
efforts, social programs that address the root causes of crime, and community-wide
engagement is likely necessary.
