"Crime doesn't follow poverty, it follows concentrations of poverty."

It's generally better to disperse affordable housing into market rate developments than to create 'projects' similar to what was built in mid-century american cities. It's a much more difficult proposition, but I suspect the plan you report on is likely doomed to simply shift crime to another area rather than reduce it overall.]]> Joel McKellar http://places.designobserver.com/feature/a-city-in-search-of-good-fortune/11847/#comments 2010-01-13T12:59:29-05:00
