The second section surveys the evidence linking crime to economic circumstances. Finally, in the third section we present some new results, obtained using both annual and quarterly time-series data for England and Wales, concerning the relationship between the business cycle and property crime, i.e. offences of burglary, robbery and theft and handling of stolen goods
