The Crime Harm Index (CHI) is a metric used to measure the impact or severity of crime in a particular area, rather than just the total number of crimes reported. It is designed to provide a more nuanced view of crime by assessing not just how many crimes occur, but how harmful those crimes are. The index typically assigns different weights or scores to various types of crimes based on the perceived harm they cause to individuals and communities.
