“The issue of race and crime is a volatile topic. Young black males commit a disproportionate share of violent crimes, leading many people to think that black communities harbor a subculture of crime. After controlling for other variables, such as concentrated poverty, researchers find that race alone has little effect on the likelihood of committing crimes or of being a crime victim. Blacks living in higher-income census tracts, like whites in such areas, experience low rates of homicide; only blacks living in concentrated poverty areas suffer from higher crime levels of homicide victimization. The coincidence of race and crime is partly a by-product of whites’ ability to flee high-crime areas; low incomes and housing discrimination prevent blacks from doing so (Dreier et al. 93).”

“The interaction of poverty and segregation acts to concentrate a variety of deleterious social and economic characteristics, creating an environment where male joblessness, female welfare dependency, crime, drug abuse, teenage childbearing, and single parenthood are common or even normative. The ghetto comes to house an abundance of negative role models who exemplify attitudes and behaviors detrimental to success in the emerging post-industrial service economy (Massey and Denton).”
