In an attempt to study the ecological correlates of various forms of social disequilibrium, census tract characteristics in a moderately large western city were analyzed.

Some community characteristics were identified which bear a significant relationship to these measures of socially deviant behavior. Attention was given to the methodological problems and possibilities in the use of correlational data to suggest cause-effect relationships.
