- W2800574802 abstract "The decrease in the overall homicide rate in the United States during the latter 1990s has been explained in terms of changes in various factors such as the availability of guns, crack markets, and demographics. Although these are all plausible explanations, they do not explain why Canada has experienced similar declines in homicide rates during that same period. Homicides in Canada are qualitatively different from homicides in the United States, and thus changes in gun availability or crack markets are likely not behind the decrease in Canada’s homicide rate. However, changes in demographics might be one explanation behind Canada’s decreasing homicide rate. Analyses revealed that as in U.S. research findings, changes in demographics appear to account for roughly 14% of Canada’s decreasing homicide rate. Thus, although the homicides are qualitatively different from one another, demographics appear to account for similarly small proportions of the change in homicide rates in both countries. Although Canada has a much lower homicide rate than the United States, homicide trends are somewhat similar in both countries. Figure 1 shows the overall U.S. homicide rate and overall Canadian homicide rate from 1961 to 1999. In 1961, Canada’s homicide rate was 1.28 (per 100,000) whereas the U.S. homicide rate was 4.8 (per 100,000). Both countries saw increases in their homicide rates until about 1975. Throughout the 1980s, there were year-to-year fluctuations in both countries, but generally both countries saw increases in homicide rates from the mid to late 1980s until about" @default.
