“…point out that rural areas are especially suited for drug production as they "provide a level of physical privacy…that is more difficult to find in an urban environment," and the detection of these sites is further impeded by the comparably limited resources of the rural police. Additionally, the lesser social and economic capital of rural areas may also be a strong factor affecting both drug use and production, which are the most prevalent in the poorest rural areas (Donnermeyer 2015a). Rural areas as sites of drug production (mainly marijuana and methamphetamine) have become common in not only the United States, but also in the United Kingdom, Australia, and Sweden .…”

“…V Sloveniji lokalne skupnosti delimo na urbane in ruralne, pri čemer meja med obema konceptoma ni vedno najbolj jasna (Vlaj, 1998). Splošno gledano pa, ko govorimo o ruralnem okolju, imamo v mislih manjša, podeželska naselja z nizko gostoto poseljenosti (Donnermeyer, 2015). Ruralna območja so tudi v današnjem času še vedno močno povezana in neločljiva od kapitalistične proizvodnje.…”

“…V primerjavi z urbanim okoljem je v ruralnih okoljih kriminalitete manj, vendar je z vidika policijskega dela drugačna kot v urbanih okoljih . V ruralnih okoljih je najpogosteje prisotna kriminaliteta, ki je povezana z zlorabo drog (predvsem alkohola), nasiljem v družini, kriminaliteto, povezano s kmetijsko dejavnostjo (kraja opreme in živine), vandalizem, požigi, ekološka kriminaliteta, mučenje živali in gojenje prepovedanih drog na bolj odmaknjenih območjih (Donnermeyer, 2015; L. Jelovčan, Ž. Kodrič, T. Lobnikar in U. Moškerc: Vloga policije pri zagotavljanju varnosti v ruralnih okoljih 145 Mawby in Yarwood, 2010). Za policijo predstavlja preiskovanje prometnih nesreč na odmaknjenih in slabo vzdrževanih cestah ter iskanje pogrešanih oseb v gozdovih ali gorovju velik izziv (Barclay, 2017).…”

V ruralnih okoljih se soočajo s pomanjkanjem javnih storitev, kamor spadajo zdravstvo, sodstvo, izobraževalne ustanove in institucije za pomoč žrtvam nasilja, kar vpliva na odzivanje žrtev, saj jim območje daje manj priložnosti za prijavo zlorabe ali iskanje pomoči. Obenem marsikje ni urejen javni transport, ki pa je ključnega pomena v primerih, ko žrtve ne morejo dobiti pomoči oziroma le-ta ni ustrezna. Nasilja v ruralnih okoljih velikokrat ne prepoznajo in se posledično normalizira, še posebej, ko govorimo o psihičnem nasilju. Problem predstavlja tudi pomanjkljivo ozaveščanje o pomenu medosebnega nasilja, zlasti med starejšimi. Ruralna okolja se soočajo z neprijavljanjem nasilja, poleg tega se žrtve soočajo s pomanjkanjem pomoči strokovnih služb na tem področju. Razpršenost podeželja onemogoča represivnim organom, da bi se seznanili s problematiko družinskega nasilja ter posledično ustrezno ukrepali.

“…However, studies have shown that among certain groups, especially rural youth, the rural-urban gap in substance abuse has been narrowing. In fact, since the early 2000s, the levels of substance abuse among rural youth have often been equal to or even exceeded those of their urban counterparts: mainly in the United States but also in the United Kingdom (Ceccato 2015f;Donnermeyer 2015a;Gomez and Pruitt 2016).…”

In this chapter, we discuss examples of crime trends in areas on rural-urban continuum in several countries, illustrating the difficulties and possible dangers of comparing between types of statistics and across countries. The types of offenders found in rural areas as well as the types of victimization that most affect those living in these areas are also discussed in this chapter, based on examples from the international literature. Victimization in rural areas includes a wide array of offenses from farm crime and environmental and wildlife offenses, to violence against women, harassment, and discrimination against minority groups, to drug and organized crime, just to name a few.
