A quick definition of ecology of crime:

Ecology of Crime: The study of why crime happens in certain places and how the environment can influence criminal behavior. It is a part of criminology, which is the study of crime and punishment. Some people study the biology of criminals, like their genes or physical traits, while others study the social factors that can lead to criminal behavior, like poverty or peer pressure. Environmental criminology specifically looks at the places where crimes happen and why criminals are drawn to those areas.

A more thorough explanation:

Ecology of crime is a term used in criminology to describe the study of areas where crime occurs and why offenders are active in those areas. It is also known as environmental criminology.

For example, a criminologist might study a particular neighborhood to understand why there is a high rate of burglary in that area. They might look at factors such as the layout of the neighborhood, the types of buildings and homes, and the presence of security measures like alarms and cameras.

Another example could be studying the ecology of crime in a city park. A criminologist might look at the park's design, lighting, and the presence of law enforcement to understand why certain crimes, such as drug dealing or assault, are more likely to occur in that location.

Overall, the ecology of crime helps us understand how the environment can influence criminal behavior and how we can design spaces to prevent crime.
