    Very good point!  Explain diff between admin records and survey records and why both are needed....

    "The NCVS [National Crime Victimization Survey] functions as an important, useful, and independent measure of overall crime in the nation, providing valuable insights into crime types not reliably captured by the UCR [Uniform Crime Reporting], detailed information about victimization harm, and the reasons why people did not report offenses to police."
