We present a heatmap performing a 2D kernel density estimation of Mafia murders in Palermo from 1909 through 1992.The map shows that the geographic pattern of the mafia murders has a high concentration in the centre of Palermo, the most vibrant area which corresponds to the geographical heart of the city, with a few isolated murders at the edge of the city. Individuals (such as politicians, entrepreneurs, police officers, judges, etc.) who have fought the criminal culture of the mafia have been mostly killed in the heart of the city.

Abstract

We present a heatmap performing a 2D kernel density estimation of Mafia murders in Palermo from 1909 through 1992.The map shows that the geographic pattern of the mafia murders has a high concentration in the centre of Palermo, the most vibrant area which corresponds to the geographical heart of the city, with a few isolated murders at the edge of the city. Individuals (such as politicians, entrepreneurs, police officers, judges, etc.) who have fought the criminal culture of the mafia have been mostly killed in the heart of the city.
