[QUOTE="Bradskii, post: 77658106, member: 412388"] I had a few minutes so I picked a large city - I think Chicago counts as such, and checked some years from 2016 to 2022 (last year the official police results were available). From here: [URL="https://home.chicagopolice.org/statistics-data/statistical-reports/annual-reports/"]Annual Reports | Chicago Police Department[/URL] and from here for 2023: [URL="https://www.illinoispolicy.org/report-chicago-violent-crime-spikes-11-arrests-in-just-11/"]Report: Chicago violent crime spikes 11%, arrests in just 11%[/URL] The numbers will be for 2016, 2018, 2020, 2022 and 2023 Murder: 769 576 772 699 624 Robbery: 11,959 9,679 7,853 8,973 9,750 Burglary: 14,273 11,731 8,752 7,592 7,441 Theft: 61,450 65,132 41,268 54,677 57,189 All the figures for '23 are lower than for '16. And there's a general downward trend in everything - except for an increase last year in robberies. One thing that screws the general trends are the figures for 2020 when covid was at its peak. As you'd expect, thefts and robberies went down and more people were at home and murders went up. There was a subsequent readjustment in the numbers the following year. Discount those as an anomaly and the trend is undoubtedly down. [/QUOTE]
