Answer: the crime rate isn't as high as it seems to be. The crime rate is high in the cities, but low in the rural and suburban areas.

Most cities are extremely liberal, making it practically impossible for good citizens to own a gun for self defense. For this reason, urban criminals know that their intended victims are helpless, and they can commit violent crimes with impunity. (Suburban and rural criminals are strongly deterred from their potential crimes by the presence of armed citizens.)

Explanation: Cities are also home to vast numbers of government dependents, broken homes, and fatherless children. Fatherless children with unstable home environments have a much higher likelihood of turning to crime, joining gangs, etc. American cities skew the statistics for the country as a whole — but if you take the cities OUT of the statistics, then America is one of the safest places in the world.

kolezko [41]

Ethnic Enclaves is the correct asnwer.

Throughout history, we see immigrants moving from one place to the other and  often staying in neighborhoods with people with whom they shared the same nationality, culture and similar habits. In Sociology and Anthropology, an ethnic enclave is defined as a geographic area where a community that shares similar background maintains a strong sense of identity and customs from their place of origin. These ethnic enclaves were the most common option for these immigrants since they felt  more welcome and safer from prejudice and discrimination.

zhenek [66]

Answer:

Urban ecology

Explanation:

According to my research on city development studies, I can say that based on the information provided within the question It would be helpful if the group had a thorough understanding of Urban Ecology. This is because Urban ecology is the scientific study of the relation of living organisms with each other and their surroundings in the context of an urban environment. Which would give them lots of insight on reasons why the people settled where they did.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
