The National Crime Victimization Survey is not based on police reports, instead it is based on a phone survey. It asks people if they've been victimized and whether they reported the crime.
WHAT ARE THE PROS AND CONS OF THE UCR AND NIBRS?
NIBRS is a system for reporting crime that is being used by more police agencies every year. UCR is the old method for collected less specific data than NIBRS and the report that comes out yearly with the analyzed data. Cons to these systems include that both of these systems only collect data on reported crime and that the UCR collection only allows for one crime to be reported per incident. A pro is that that the information is standardized across the US.

How are the NIBRS and UCR different?
The National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) and the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) program differ primarily in their data collection methods and the depth of information provided. NIBRS captures detailed data on each crime incident, including information about victims, offenders, and the context of the crime, while UCR aggregates data into broad categories, focusing on a limited number of offenses. Additionally, NIBRS allows for the reporting of multiple offenses in a single incident, whereas UCR typically reports only the most serious crime in an incident. This results in NIBRS offering a more comprehensive view of crime patterns and trends.
