A study reveals that cities experiencing export slowdowns in China see a significant rise in crime rates, particularly in areas with high concentrations of manufacturing, young people, immigrants, and dropouts. A $1000 decrease in per capita exports leads to an estimated increase of 143 criminal cases per million people, explaining about 13.1% of the variation in crime rates across cities. The main drivers are labor market deterioration and declining mental health.
