Is it down? I thought it was basically unchanged.
Maybe depending on your starting point. What years are you comparing?
For police staffing it's been going down since the George Floyd protest No one wants to be a cop any more. This one doesn't give years but it says 5% over the last couple years. The change is bigger in larger more liberal cities. Chicago is down 13% since 2018 , san francisco which inspired this meme is down 20% since 2017 and all the mayoral candidates are falling over themselves to say they'll solve it even though crime is down.
For crime I was referring to the decline since the post pandemic peak.
Very interesting, thank you.
Is anyone checking whether crime is down or whether crime reporting is down?
And is sharing the crime reporting of crime down?
