Title:  

Specification of Patterns over Time In Chicago Homicide: Increases and Decreases, 1965 - 1981

 
 Volume/Number:  1985 October 
 Issuing Agency:   
 Description:  This paper is the second of two reports that examine these homicides. This second report focuses on the pattern over time in the number of homicides occurring from month to month. The number of homicides known to the police in Chicago changed tremendously over the 17-year period. In 1965, there were about 30 murders in a typical month, but by the end of 1974 there were almost 75 per month. After a brief decline in 1975 and 1976, homicides increased again from 1977 through 1981. Was this pattern over time evident in murders involving only one part of Chicago's population or did it occur without regard to race/ethnicity, gender, and age? Did it occur in only one type of homicide or in all types?
