What Could Be Improved
This Project could be improved if I had added more hard data such as population data percentages and number of offenders in certain crime level to create a more accurate picture of the outcome. In addition the project could be improved if I used the information I acquired from my sources more extensively, I used my sources minimally which helped contribute to the lack of hard data.
