Briefly describe the relationship between social class and domestic violence.
What will be an ideal response?
First, victimization is most frequent between the ages of 16 and 49, especially between 16 and 34. Second, there are enormous differences by income level. Women between 16 and 35 at the lowest income level are 3–5 times more likely to be victims of intimate partner violence than their peers in the top income category. These data support the claims of Fine and Weis, among others, that domestic abuse is much more common at lower-class levels.
