This report briefly describes why this population adjustment process is important and then uses spatial analysis to identify neighborhood incarceration rate clusters, also referred to as hot spots or cold spots, and outliers. The results are mapped to visualize Maryland’s areas of incarceration hot spot and cold spot clusters and outlier areas.6 pagesen-USThis is a work of the United States Government.
