註釋Kooi analyzes the spatial impact of bus stops on neighborhood crime statistics and hot spots. His findings indicate that neighborhoods with concentrated bus stop locations suffered higher crime while controlling for relevant social disorganization variables. Crime surrounding or linked to bus stop locations not only affects use of public transportation but also patronage of businesses surrounding the bus stops. Kooi poses questions challenging the notion of responsibility for spaces surrounding bus stop locations and criticizes the lack of planning for placement of bus stops in relation to spatial crime impact. He offers solutions for addressing these issues.
