What is the difference between crime displacement and diffusion of benefits?

What will be an ideal response?


Crime displacement is the idea that rather than eliminating crime, interventions simply result in the movement of crime to another area. Diffusion of benefits is the opposite of crime displacement. Diffusion of benefits is a positive effect on crime that does not require that police expend resources in those areas affected.
