It is important to note that the looting of businesses during protests or riots occurs in various neighborhoods, regardless of the racial makeup of the area. While there is no data that links the race of individuals committing looting or vandalism to the location of the crime, it is true that many inner-city neighborhoods, particularly those with a high percent of low-income families, are more vulnerable to have stores targeted for looting.

A range of factors, such as the location of the store, the value of the merchandise, and the density of stores in a particular area, can all play a role in determining which stores are targeted by looters during protests or riots.

It is important to note that looting and vandalism are illegal, regardless of where they occur, and should be addressed by law enforcement in a manner that is fair, impartial, and effective.
