Understanding Crime in Urban and Rural Areas
|
Understanding Crime in Urban and Rural AreasPrevious research suggests that rural areas are likely to experience lower levels of recorded crime when compared with urban areas. More detailed analysis at a local level has been hampered by the lack of clear definitions of what constitute urban and rural areas. The Understanding Crime in Urban and Rural Areas report uses a clear and definitive classification of urban and rural areas and applies it to Leicestershire, Leicester and Rutland. This classification facilitates a comparison of recorded offences and perceptions of crime between rural and urban areas.
