Answer to Question 1

In the United States the two methods of estimating the amount of crime are the Uniform Crime
Reports, based on crimes reported to the police, and the National Crime Victimization Survey, based on self-reports from households. They are different because the UCR is based on reports to police and the NCVS is based on self-report data.

Answer to Question 2
