In this work we analyze those questions using a very detailed administrative data from the Greater Manchester Police Force. This data allows contains information on the location of the crime, which allows us to relate it to local economic conditions, and on the location of the offender. We study the patterns of crime locations and the extent to which offenders ‘commute’ to commit crimes, and how the two are affected by local economic conditions.
