This is what I'm talking about. How do you know about the rise is violence on ride share drivers without social media or statistics? There is no way to keep track of every single thing that happens, you have to rely on media whether T.V or internet and we all know how information could be controlled. The media would not be able to relay this information to the public without the use of statistics. My point again is you have no way of knowing what is going on with everything, everywhere without the use of this information. You pointed energy being one of the factors you can judge based off feeling while Obama was in office, that's the only way you can tell without data. The hood has always "been on edge", it does not matter if Obama is the president or not. If the stats say crime rates were all the way up from 09-13, you would have a different perspective about those years today... thanks to stats.
There was 58 murders in SE one year one of the lowest in history. You dont need the news to tell when the atmosphere is different. I've been out all throughout the pandemic doing rideshare. I can see the yellow tape, the shootings, the altercations. These things arent on the news as they aren't reported half the time. You see the vagrants taking over in places where there were once crowds of office workers. Im not understanding your logic saying there is no difference if we neglected the stats. Thats saying theres no difference between 1990's DC and today. Not to bring stats back into this If thats the case they wouldnt have lost 20k residents last year.
Alright I believe you, maybe over here in CA it always look the same.
My city of Roanoke, VA is now at 8 after a man was shot and killed on Williamson Rd (one of the sketchier areas of town). We're already at eight, and the year is not even halfway over. Not looking good.
I'm curious to see the numbers for the 2-3 million metro Midwestern cities. Where's Columbus at? Is Indy headed for yet another record year for homicides? Are Cincinnati and Cleveland on track for another bad year? St Louis is always terrible, but will they be "status quo" terrible (ie a homicide rate of 60-66) or will they be terrible even by St Louis standards? (ie 2020).
KCMO I know has around 66 homicides at the moment. It's looking like they will probably meet or slightly exceed their 2020 record.

By 2 to 3 million msa standards. The only two that comes up on the 50 most violent are Milwaukee and Nashville. St. Louis, Kansas City, Cincinnati and Cleveland are never on the most dangerous MSA lists. https://247wallst.com/special-report...politan-areas/
