Title: Casinos and Florida: Crime and Prison Costs

Summary: Based on a conservative estimate, crime increases following the introduction of casinos into Miami-Dade County will result in a $3 billion dollar impact, on just the state prison system over a 10-year period. This estimate assumes that only 3%-8% of new crime will result in arrest and sentencing. This estimate does not attempt to put a dollar value on the costs for local police, prosecutors, or courts. Nor does it attempt to quantify the costs to the individuals who are the victims of crime. The impact of crime is felt more by victims than by society as a whole. It is, however, extremely difficult to put a price tag on the impact of crime to its victims. The financial impact of crime on the community, state, and taxpayers can be estimated. Ultimately, individual and business taxpayers must pay for the direct effects of crime on the costs of community policing, prosecution, court resources, and imprisonment. Other indirect costs of increased crime also exist, such as negative impacts on property values, productivity, and availability of public resources for other community needs. This estimate assumes that 2015-16 will be the first full year of casino operation in South Florida. It further assumes that casinos will be located only in Miami-Dade County. If it included Broward and Palm Beach Counties, the fiscal impact would more than double. It conservatively assumes that crime rates in Miami-Dade County are the same as the national crime rates used in our comparison study for the United States. (Just for Florida, we know that the crime rate in 2010 for serious crimes per 100,000 population was 5,506 for Miami-Dade County and 4,105 for the state as a whole.)
