COVID-19 导致人们呆在家里的时间突然发生变化,许多城市和州实施了官方的居家 (SAH) 或“封锁”政策。使用芝加哥市的手机区块级活动数据以及 911 行政管理数据和犯罪数据,我们估计了伊利诺伊州州长 SAH 命令对警察服务呼叫、警方记录的犯罪以及与家庭暴力相关的逮捕的影响。我们发现,SAH 命令的宣布增加了呆在家里的时间,导致警察服务请求总数减少,但随后与家庭暴力相关的警察服务请求增加。然而,我们发现警察的官方报告和逮捕的家庭暴力犯罪人数分别下降了 6.8% 和 26.4%。报告的家庭暴力犯罪数量的下降反映了报告的犯罪总数的下降;然而,家庭暴力犯罪的减少量大约比总体犯罪率的下降量小五倍。
COVID-19 has led to an abrupt change in time spent at home, with many cities and states implementing official stay-at-home (SAH), or “lockdown,” policies. Using cell phone block-level activity data and administrative 911 and crime data from the City of Chicago, we estimate the effects of the Illinois governor’s SAH order on calls for police service, crimes recorded by police, and arrests made relating to domestic violence. We find that the SAH order announcement increased time spent at home, leading to a decrease in total calls for police service, but a subsequent increase in domestic violence–related calls for police service. However, we find that official reports by police officers and arrests for domestic violence crimes fell by 6.8 percent and 26.4 percent, respectively. Declines in reported domestic violence crimes mirror drops in total reported crimes; however, the reduction for domestic violence crimes is around 5 times smaller than the decline in overall crime rates.
