Background and Aims
Several randomized controlled trials (RCTs) conclude that heroin‐assisted‐treatment (HAT) has a larger benefit–cost ratio than oral methadone because HAT more reliably and substantially reduces participants’ criminal activity. This review: (1) summarizes results from RCTs concerning the comparative effectiveness of HAT for reducing criminal activity and (2) examines the role of...
Background and Aims
In previous research, the spatial distribution of alcohol outlets has been shown to be related to the spatial distribution of crime. However, the spatial distribution of alcohol outlets is also related to the spatial distribution of other retail (and non‐retail) activities. We measured whether a residual relationship between alcohol outlets and crime remains statistically significant...
Background and aims
Retail alcohol outlets appear to open in neighborhoods with low land and structure rents near sources of demand; they may ‘agglomerate’, open near to one another or ‘churn’, replace one another, over time. We used the turnover in numbers of outlets over time to measure agglomeration and churning and the impacts of openings and closings of outlets on neighborhood crime.
