CARRILLO-SAGASTEGUI, Luis Lauro; GARCIA-FERNANDEZ, Francisco e LOPEZ-AREVALO, Jorge Alberto. The relationship between inequality and crime in the context of the states with the greatest poverty in Mexico: The cases of Guerrero, Oaxaca, and Chiapas. Estud. soc. Rev. aliment. contemp. desarro. reg. [online]. 2022, vol.32, n.59, e221208. Epub 06-Mar-2023. ISSN 2395-9169. https://doi.org/10.24836/es.v32i59.1208.
Objective:
To establish the relationship between poverty and inequality with crime, in the states of Guerrero, Oaxaca and Chiapas at the municipal level.
Methodology:
A quantitative methodology was adopted, using data from Coneval, SNSP and INEGI, for which a correlation analysis was performed, first and then a multiple linear regression.
Results:
It was obtained that there is a relationship at the state level, and municipalities verified it. Total and extreme poverty and crime are inversely related (except for crimes against personal freedom). As extreme poverty decreases and moderate poverty increases, crime decreases.
Limitations:
The main limitations were the availability of crime data in municipalities of Oaxaca and not controlling the effect of geographic space in the model.
Conclusions:
It was concluded that the inequality variable is related in all cases to higher crime rates and has a greater capacity to predict crime than poverty.
