    Prisoners by sex, annual (Europe)

    Annual number of prisoners by sex - persons held in penal institutions - for EU member states, EFTA countries and EU candidate countries. Eurostat dataset crim_pris_age ('Prisoners by age and sex'), filtered to freq=A, age=TOTAL ('Total'), unit=NR ('Number'); the sex dimension keeps T ('Total'), M ('Males') and F ('Females'), all offence categories combined. Each row is one (year, country, sex). Method: Eurostat compiles the statistics from national prison administrations; prisoner counts include convicted persons and persons held in pre-trial detention. Non-EU/EFTA/candidate series (the UK sub-national series UKC-L/UKM/UKN, Kosovo) are dropped (same licensing rule as the other Eurostat datasets). Units: prisoners (counts). Caveats: national definitions of penal institutions differ (some countries exclude certain detention types), so cross-country levels are less comparable than within-country trends; sex-T totals do not always equal the M+F sum where reporting is incomplete; counts scale with population - the companion prisoner-rates dataset gives per-100,000 rates for direct comparisons. Coverage: ~37 geographic units after the geo rule, 2008 to the present, annual. Provenance: Eurostat keyless JSON-stat API, free reuse with attribution (Commission Decision 2011/833/EU) - please cite Eurostat. Primary key: (year, country_code, sex). Join keys: country_code (ISO 3166-1 alpha-3), year. Cadence: refreshed yearly; Eurostat updates the crime statistics in spring (2026-04-29 vintage covers 2008-2024). Sample use: filter sex='F' to track the female prison population over time.

  • Eurostat

    Suspects and offenders by sex, annual (Europe)

    Annual suspected, prosecuted and convicted persons by sex - all offence categories combined - for EU member states, EFTA countries and EU candidate countries. Eurostat dataset crim_just_sex ('Suspects and offenders by sex'), filtered to freq=A ('Annual'), unit=NR ('Number'), sex in (T 'Total', M 'Males', F 'Females'); all three legal statuses are kept. Each row is one (year, country, legal status, sex): the number of persons, from police and justice records compiled by Eurostat under the UNODC International Classification of Crime for Statistical Purposes (ICCS): PER_SUSP 'Suspected person', PER_PRSC 'Prosecuted person', PER_CNV 'Convicted person'. Non-EU/EFTA/candidate series (the UK sub-national series UKC-L/UKM/UKN, Kosovo) are dropped (same licensing rule as the other Eurostat datasets). Units: persons (counts). Caveats: prosecution and conviction counts lag the offence year through the justice pipeline, and coverage of the pipeline stages differs across countries; sex-T totals do not always equal the M+F sum where reporting is incomplete. Coverage: ~37 geographic units after the geo rule, 2008 to the present, annual. Provenance: Eurostat keyless JSON-stat API, free reuse with attribution (Commission Decision 2011/833/EU) - please cite Eurostat. Primary key: (year, country_code, justice_status, sex). Join keys: country_code (ISO 3166-1 alpha-3), year. Cadence: refreshed yearly; Eurostat updates the crime statistics in spring (2026-04-29 vintage covers 2008-2024). Sample use: filter justice_status='PER_CNV' and sex='T' to track convicted persons over time.
