Neighborhood Effects on Crime and Youth Violence: the Role of Business Improvement Districts in Los Angeles

Barrister John MacDonald (University of Western Sydney Australia),Ricky N Bluthenthan,Daniela Golinelli,Aaron Kofner,Robert J Stokes

Business improvement districts (BIDs) collect assessments and invest in local service provisions and activities, such as place promotion, street cleaning, and public safety. Such activities can help reduce crime and youth violence by increasing informal social control, reducing signs of disorder and blight, improving order maintenance, and enriching job opportunities. This report examines BIDs’ impact on crime and youth violence in Los Angeles.
