Abstract

This study assesses the relationship between land use, measured as percent zoning designation per square kilometer in a census tract, and homicide counts in Portland, Oregon, while controlling for other neighborhood characteristics. Negative binomial models are implemented to account for the overdispersed homicide count indicator. Results suggest that some land use variables—specifically, mixed-use residential (positive association) and single-family residential (negative association)—have significant predictive value for homicide counts beyond neighborhood characteristics and socioeconomic variables deemed important by criminological theory and research.

土地使用重要吗?超越社会混乱的影响来理解杀人案件
本研究评估了俄勒冈州波特兰市的土地利用(以人口普查区每平方公里分区指定百分比来衡量)与凶杀数量之间的关系,同时控制了其他社区特征。采用负二项模型来解释过度分散的杀人计数指标。结果表明,一些土地利用变量——特别是混合用途住宅(正相关)和单户住宅(负相关)——对凶杀数量的预测价值超过了犯罪学理论和研究认为重要的社区特征和社会经济变量。
