Answer:

At the macro level, there does appear to be a correlation between class and delinquency.

Explanation:

When studied at the macro level there appears to be a correlation between class and delinquency, which has led people to believe that class determines delinquency rates: a poor neighborhood is bound to have high rates of delinquency and high class neighborhoods are not. Which is why, although statistically correct, we should be very carefull about how we use these findings because we can miss other social issues that influence in delinquency, such as unemployement and education inequality, putting the blame on the poor and not on the structural inequality.
