The provided line graph illustrates the UK’s crime rates according to the criminals’ ages last year, while the pie chart compares the frequency of four main crime types over the same time period and region.
In general, it can be clearly seen that teenagers and young people are more prone to committing crimes, and most of the criminals chose violence.
On the one hand, looking at the line graph, around 50,000 children first came across illegal activities at the age of 12 years old. Later on, British youngsters reached the peak of violation at their twenties, when over 2,100,000 of them in total committed unlawful actions at least once before the age of 28. Following that was a continuous downward trend in the crime rates, reaching less than 100,000 units for each age group older than 44.
On the other hand, the pie chart shows that violent crime accounts for nearly half of all local unlawful actions in the United Kingdom last year. By contrast, the annual number of property crime and drug crime made up one-fifth each, while public order crime was the rarest, chosen on only 9% of occasions.
