On 28 November 2023, the Scottish Crime and Justice Survey 2021/22 was published by the Scottish Government. This doesn’t include reported crime, but instead is the result of surveyed experiences and perceptions of crime and the justice system. It showed that the volume of crime, including incidents not reported to police, has fallen by 53% since 2008/09, with violent crime decreasing by 58% and the proportion of people experiencing crime falling from one in five, to around one in 10.
