While many of these cases are resolved promptly, a substantial number remain open, leaving families and communities in distress. A pertinent question arises: Are urban or rural areas more prone to missing persons incidents? This article delves into the data and contributing factors to shed light on this issue.
Defining Urban and Rural Areas
Before analyzing the prevalence of missing persons in different locales, it's essential to understand what constitutes urban and rural areas. The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) classifies urban areas based on weighted housing-unit density, emphasizing regions with higher concentrations of housing units per square mile.
