Discuss the social patterns of crime
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: Victimization is patterned geographically and socio-demographically, with most of the patterns similar to those for criminality. Victimization rates are lower for whites, women (except for rape and domestic violence), older people, and the non-poor than for their counterparts. Victimization rates for young African-American males are especially high.
