   Mar 1, 2017 · In other words, rather than asking how suburbanization is driven by central city crime rates, we analyze each city's level of crime within its own socioeconomic context and that of its metropolitan area.

   Dec 1, 2021 · We demonstrated that using crime rates to rank cities substantially differs from ranking cities adjusted for population size. These findings imply that using crime rates per capita—though deemed a standard measure in criminal justice statistics—can create a distorted view of cities’ rankings.

   Are crime rates a standard measure of crime in cities?

   • Crucially, crime rates are often deemed to be a standard means of comparing crime in cities. Yet the widespread adoption of crime rates is arguably due more to tradition (Boivin, 2013) rather than its ability to remove the effects of population size.

   Should crime rates per capita be used to rank cities?

   • Hence, we advise caution when using crime rates per capita to rank cities and recommend evaluating the linear plausibility before doing so. In criminology, it is generally accepted that crime occurs more often in more populated regions.

   Does crime vary across cities?

   • That is to say, the focus is often placed either on variation in crime across counties or MSAs, or variation in crime across a set of large cities – in both cases omitting the simultaneous relationship between a city's crime rate and the characteristics of both the city and the region in which it is situated.

   Do cities with a larger population experience a higher crime rate?

   • We test and find that although cities with larger population and those surrounded by a county with a larger population typically experience larger increases in crime over the subsequent decade, cities experiencing an increase in population during the current decade experience crime decreases.

   Does crime concentration divide cities into regions with the same population size?

   • Though confirmed by different studies, this concentration lacks broad analyses on its characteristics, which hinders not only the comprehension of crime dynamics but also the proposal of sounding counter-measures. Here, we developed a framework to characterize crime concentration which divides cities into regions with the same population size.

   Does crime scale in cities?

   • These findings are particularly intriguing in light of the superlinear scaling found in thefts in contrast to the linearity in burglaries—though we are still in need of more conclusive analyses on the scaling laws of robberies (see S1 Text). Such regularities in crime concentration might be linked to the way crime scales in cities.

   Aug 11, 2017 · We found that the distribution of crime in a city can be approximated by a power-law distribution with exponent α that depends on the type of crime. In particular, our results showed that thefts tend to concentrate more than robberies, and robberies more than burglaries.
