The following graphs show the reported crimes from the “family violence” categories in the Police Database by Family Members of the Victim for the 12 months to January 2025. The categories used are: Acts Intended to Cause Injury, Sexual Assault and Related Offences, Robbery/Harassment, and Theft and Related.
These are Offences reported to Police, not Proceedings.
The Police Victimisations Report is the source of the Victimisations data, and StatsNZ/Census 2023 is the source of the Population size data.
The “per-100k” graphs show us how many offences are committed for every 100,000 people in each ethnic group, it essentially corrects for population size.
While we cannot always make the assumption that the ethnicity of a victim is going to be the same as the Offender, in the case of Family Members, we can let the assumption stretch.
