The crime index is otherwise called crime statistics.

It is a statistic measurement of crime or crime rate in a particular society, community, country or simply a region. It is mainly used by agencies like FBI in the US, Home Office in England and Wales, Interpol and UN.

They mainly collect these information either from Uniform crime reports or individual survey, relaying one their honesty. So the results may not be 100% accurate, but it could give you more or less exact figures to analyse.
