New Zealand’s Ethnic Makeup – 2023 Census
The ethnic group distribution of New Zealand as per the 2023 Census. This is a self-selected grouping in the Census, and where people have chosen more than one group, they are counted in each group. (It’s not a genetic thing, that wouldn’t be possible.)
This allows us to calculate the “per-capita” rate of offending for each group, by dividing the total offense number by the number of people in each group. We then multiply that by 100,000 – showing the rate of offending per 100,000 people. This helps give a better picture than simple raw totals when group sizes differ.
The following information is sourced from the policedata section of the NZ Police site, it is a public Tableau database that is updated monthly.
For this report I used the “Unique Offenders” Tableau, and this time the Details tab, to show the Relationship between the Offender and the Victim where the two are Family Members.
It is different to the Victimisations data, which is Reported crime. These are actually investigated crimes where proceedings were brought against the Offender.
