Abstract
This paper explores the differences between New York City's minority and non-minority homeless women in terms of the nature and extent of their victimization experiences while living on the streets, perceptions of vulnerability to victimization risk and fear of crime. Results indicate that minority homeless women are victimized to a greater extent and are more fearful than non-minority homeless females. These results can be explained by differences in the routine lifestyles of minority versus non-minority homeless females while living on the streets.
