May 7, 2013 · Urban Wire Five Ways to Reduce Crime. Shebani Rao, Nancy G. La Vigne. Display Date. May 7, 2013. Recently, The Washington Post ’s Wonkblog published a list of research-backed strategies to combat crime. We at the Urban Institute’s Justice Policy Center propose five additional evidence-based strategies based on our own research:
- Help Victims of Crime. There is far too little support for victims of crime, even though it is the most obvious place to start. Prior victimization — of a person or a place — is the top predictor of future victimization.
- Reduce Demand for Law Enforcement. A central reason why law enforcement does not prevent more crime or solve more crimes is that they are too busy doing things that accomplish neither objective.
- Fixing Distressed Spaces. There is a wide body of evidence that shows that places poison people more routinely than people poison places. Crime does not result from “areas” of the “inner city” being high risk, but rather from a few very small, very bad places.
- Making Crime Attractors Less Appealing. Certain places attract and generate crime — schools, the built environment and bars being at the top of the list.
