Huh, NYC

I would not have thought all crime was down that much in NYC based on news reports of deterioration of quality of public life.  I mean I can see murder rates continue to creep down, but I'd have guess nuisance crimes are up.  And hate crimes in the city are spotlit recently.

There is also a possibility that the data collection has been tampered with, and purposely under reported for political reasons.  Or if not data tampering, purposeful enforcement slow downs.

Or I could have been hoodwinked by inflated reports of rapid decay in the media.
