Abstract

This study analyzed the spatial distribution of violent crime (murder, robbery, rape, assault, and larceny) in Korea and the relationship between violent crime and the governance, administrative, physical, and socio-economic factors of local communities. The occurrence of violent crime was approached from the perspective of the community, not from a personal perspective, based on the theoretical ecological perspective. In addition, an analysis model (spatial lag model) designed to analyze spillover effect between neighboring communities. For the analysis, this study used the data of 56 sub-local governments of Seoul Metropolitan City and Gyeonggi Province in 2015.
