Interaction Between Neighborhood Change and Criminal Activity, 1950-1976: Los Angeles County
This study was conducted in 1979 at the Social Science
Research Institute, University of Southern California, and explores
the relationship between neighborhood change and crime rates between
the years 1950 and 1976. The data were aggregated by unique and
consistently-defined spatial areas, referred to as dummy tracts or
neighborhoods, within Los Angeles County. By combining United States
Census data and administrative data from several state, county, and
local agencies, the researchers were able to develop measures that
tapped the changing structural and compositional aspects of each
neighborhood and their interaction with the patterns of juvenile
delinquency. Some of the variables included are annual income, home
environment, number of crimes against persons, and number of property
crimes.
