摘要：

This study employs data from a national survey in order to assess the empirical importance of lifestyle/exposure or routine activity variables in explaining the relationship between urban-rural residence and criminal victimization. The hypotheses which guide this analysis are derived from determinist and compositional accounts of the differences between urban and rural life. The data provide little support for the compositional interpretation as place of residence emerges as a significant predictor of victimization risk. Moreover, the analysis reveals that the etiological significance of residence is offence-specific in that different explanations may be required for crimes of violence and crimes of personal theft.
