Often involves the use of police statistics to determine where crime is committed, who committed it, who is victimized, and what are the major dimensions of the criminal act. Patterns of crime are farther examined by the spatial distribution of crime in a city, the social background of offenders and victims, relationships between offenders and victims and the social processes that lead to crime.

The Pattern-of-Crime approach uses police data to investigate the distribution of crime in time and space and to study offenders and victims ( Criminology, Eleventh Edition by John E. Conkin pg. 23).
