According to a report recently released by the Maine Statistical Analysis Center (a partnership between the University of Southern Maine’s Muskie School of Public Service and the Maine Department of Corrections), while Maine residents tend to feel safe in their communities, the crimes with the highest victimization rates were identity theft, property crimes, and stalking. In addition, respondents report being threatened with violence nearly twice as often as being the victim of a violent crime.
