The line graph depicts the link between age and criminality rate last year ,whilst the pie chart showcases the percentage of numerous kinds of crimes during the same year.

In fact, according to the data, individuals who are 20 are responsible for 80% of crimes. It is also noticeable that there is no criminal under the age of 8 years old. Hence, criminality starts from this period. Furthermore, the crime rate decreases dramatically from the age of 20 to 28 years old, passing from 80% to exactly 20%. Afterwards, it plummets steadily until becoming under the 10% at the age of 60. On the other hand, the pie chart puts forward the fact that violent acts are the most that occured. Indeed, this genre of detrimental action accounts for 46%, followed by property crimes that represent 23% of the total. Then, 22% of crimes that occured the previous year were related to narcotics. Finally, public order crime accounts only for 9%.
