Probably for the perpetrators, probably not for the companies involved (which are likely to have the same set of Delaware and/or Cayman mailing addresses) :-P

But sure, I would expect that white collar crime is unsurprisingly correlated.

Maybe not though - boiler room style phone banks of investor fraudsters are a stereotype for a reason, and those aren't necessarily the high rent end of town.

Are you counting the crime as happening at the place of business, or at the home of the perp? It'd be hard to quantify, as WHERE a white collar crime happens is not particularly material. You can cook the books at home or at work.
