Crime Patterns and Gaming Development in Rural Colorado
Patricia A. Stokowski
Opponents of casino development often claim that gaming development will lead to an increase in community criminal behavior. This article compares crime levels before, during, and after the initiation of gaming in three rural Colorado towns. While totals have increased in some offense categories, crime is not proportional to numbers of tourists visiting. These data illustrate the complexity of competing claims about gaming impacts.
