dc.description.abstract | Despite several studies on demographic, socio-economic factors and crime incidences, the need for further analysis remains contested. The multinomial Logistic Regression Model was applied to establish the association of these three variables. Primary data was collected from police stations with detention facilities by using a structured questionnaire. The findings pointed out significant relationships between demographic and socio-economic factors and crime incidences. However, the main economic activity of the respondent was not a significant factor influencing crime incidences. These results are imperative for policy formulation targeting the reduction of crimes. | en_US |
