Voland's Right Hand: The number one correlation is the size of the cohort of males, ages 16-24, then you get correlatations to poverty and unemployment. That research, commissioned by your Constabary came from an English lady, Dr. F. N. David. She was my mentor starting age 14 guiding me through statistics and computer science at the university. Quite a character. Smoked cigars, only drove Rolls-Royces (reliability) and never took an elevator having calculated how many times, on average, she'd be stuck in one. Miss her every day.
