The article consists of theoretical and empirical parts. In the theoretical part, the authors review domestic statistical models describing the level of economic crime and the factors that influence it. At the first stage of the empirical part, the authors compare the median values of the level of economic crime in the Federal districts of Russia from 2010 to 2019 and check the statistical significance of the differences. At the second stage, the impact of the unemployment rate, the amount of per capita income and their interaction on the level of economic crime in the country's regions is estimated. As a result of determining the impact of socio-economic factors on the crime rate, a grouping of Federal districts of Russia was carried out.
