Victimization
\nThe dual effect of low income and victimization is called victim precipitation. I do agree that individuals that lived in poor areas are at higher risk of experiencing recurring victimization. Poor areas are associated with high crime, and as such, most of these areas are referred to as crime \u201chot spots\u201d (Daigle, 2017). Therefore, individuals living in these areas are constantly exposed to the danger of being attacked by criminals. Poor areas are also associated with weak community sanctions against violence; this means that neighbors in such areas are reluctant to intervene in circumstances where they witness violence. For this reason, an individual may find himself\/herself being constantly victimized by criminals since they (criminals) know no one will come to the help of the victim. It is also important to note that poor areas have a lesser ability to mobilize effective informal social control sources that can maintain safety in neighborhoods (Daigle, 2017). This means that the areas are less safe hence the increased likelihood of being victimized.<\/p>\n
