Spatial Modeling and Analysis of the Determinants of Property Crime in Portugal

Abstract: Many researchers have unraveled innovative ways of examining geographic information to better understand the determinants of crime, thus contributing to an improved understanding of the phenomenon. Property crimes represent more than half of the crimes reported in Portugal. This study investigates the spatial distribution of crimes against property in mainland Portugal with the primary goal of determining which demographic and socioeconomic factors may be associated with crime incidence in each municipality.

“…This model has an enhanced benefit over the global model and can offer insights into local variations not revealed in global models. Crime literature has extensively used SEM (Kepple & Freisthler, 2015;Kelling et al, 2021) and GWR (E. Stein et al, 2016;Xu et al, 2019;Tavares & Costa, 2021) in examining crime and the wide variety of socio-spatial processes.…”

Las condiciones de pobreza y la desigualdad absoluta en el ingreso económico conducen al crimen hacia la propiedad privada a largo plazo (Tavares y Costa, 2021). Por otro lado, el desempleo tiene un efecto disuasorio respecto a los delitos contra la propiedad privada a corto plazo, por el incremento de la vigilancia informal, pero a largo plazo registra un efecto positivo, dado el aumento de la motivación criminal (Tavares y Costa, 2021;Costantini et al, 2018).…”

“…Por el contrario, el desempleo aumenta el número esperado de casos en todas las regiones, aunque también es claro que este efecto es mayor en la parte este y en la norte. Dicho resultado se contrapone a lo enunciado en la revisión de literatura, que señala que la relación entre desempleo y robos se da a largo plazo (Tavares y Costa, 2021;Costantini et al, 2018) y es consistente con lo reportado por Haberman (2017), quien menciona la relación positiva entre desigualdad económica y desempleo con el robo a la propiedad.…”
