The empirical analysis addresses temperature, holidays (both official federal holidays and informal party holidays), weekends, unemployment rate, and seasonal trends. Relationships are examined between these variables and total crime, as well as with each component of violent crime: aggravated assault, sexual assault, robbery, and murder. It is hypothesized that through analyzing these independent variables and reacting accordingly by implementing change in policy, especially through increasing police presence, crime would likely be deterred to a greater extent
