Murder is down 21.7% in 113 cities with data available through at least January. Still too early to know likelihood it will persist through the year, but does portend a massive national drop this year. Down 21% in 48 cities with data at least through Feb 20.

Any society has finite resources to devote to crime, and Donald Trump appears to be using up most of ours these days.

haven't seen the show but is it safe to assume this is the result of Only allowing Murders in the Building?

Especially notable given how mild this winter was! More people out and about, interacting, provides more opportunities for crime. But it didn't happen....

DAMN YOU JOE BIDEN!!!!!

The table should read 2024 and 2023 totals, obviously. It's a new table :)

Will update our YTD murder dashboard for 2024 sometime at the end of this month.

Guess what? People who want more money for cops don't care about crime data.

Not Gen Z killing the murder industry… 🙄

Are you saying... that millennials are killing murder?

The other murders no one mentions 😔 animalclock.org
