Abstract

Abstract This paper addresses two major issues in the field where environmental criminology and the analysis of local population structures interact. First, it discusses three key sources of criminological and demographic data for investigating spatial patterns of crime within cities, and operationalises them in a particular urban area to assess their compatibility. Second, it provides some data on housebreaking to indicate that there can be appreciable differences in levels of crime, between adjacent, public‐sector housing estates in one particular, but representative, Scottish urban setting.
