Routine Activities, Opportunity and Crime in the Inner City: Investigating the Link Between Monthly Income Assistance Payments and Crime in Winnipeg
Description:
Winnipeg police officers who have worked in Winnipeg's downtown area have long noted cyclical fluctuations in the level of crime throughout each month and throughout the year. In particular, anecdotal observation by police and others have long pointed to monthly fluctuations in the level of calls for police service that might be best classified as 'social disorder’ offences such as public intoxication and certain types of disturbances.
