Rankings

Definition

All criminal offences (delitos and delitos leves) known to the police during the year.

More on how it is measured
  • Known offences (hechos conocidos): criminal offences recorded by the Policía Nacional, the Guardia Civil, the regional police forces and the local police forces that report to the Sistema Estadístico de Criminalidad, whether reported by the public or found by the police.

Since 2023 the total includes offences committed online (cibercriminalidad), which the ministry now reports in a separate block; they were part of the total before as well. Spain only: the country, its comunidades autónomas and its provinces from 2016, and municipalities over 20,000 residents from 2023. Calendar-year totals from the fourth-quarter Balance de Criminalidad of the Ministry of the Interior.
