Subject: Is crime on the rise?

Written By: batfan2005 on 04/14/06 at 11:14 pm

Lately in the news, it seems like there are more killings so far this year than this same time in 2005 or 2004, at least in Atlanta and San Diego. I was wondering could the crime rate which was dropping since the mid 90's be turning around rising this year? How is it where you live?

No. Not really. More killings/other crimes are being reported.

No this is a misconception, I think there's less crime nowadays.

Crime isn't on the rise, people are widening their eyes.

It's actually lower than it was 10 years ago by FAR in Jersey/NYC when it was still pretty sleazy around Times Square, but I see this turning around soon.

Locally I seem to notice there is has been a spate of violent crime reported on the news, etc. But I don't know if it has anything to do with hard stats.
