Informal Social Control of Crime in High Drug Use Neighborhoods in Louisville and Lexington, Kentucky, 2000
This neighborhood-level study sought to explore the effect
of cultural disorganization, in terms of both weakened conventional
culture and value heterogeneity, on informal social control, and the
extent to which these effects may be conditioned by the level of drug
use in the neighborhood. Data for Part 1 were collected from
face-to-face and telephone interviews with households in the targeted
sample. Part 2 is comprised of data collected from the United States
Census 1990 Summary Tape File 3A (STF3A) as well as the United
States Census 2000 Population counts, Lexington and Louisville police
crime incident reports, and police data on drug arrests. The responses
gleaned from the survey used in Part 1 were aggregated to the census
block group level, which are included in Part 2.
