That said, those are restricted generally to a few areas, the new mayoral administration is leaps and bounds above what London Breed was doing, and we're one of the safest cities in the US when it comes of violent crime.
So, to hear us mentioned in the same breath as some of these others, it's just comical. It's not rooted in reality whatsoever. Previous Message
“Chicago ranked 38th of 50 cities. Across the 50 largest cities, Chicago had the fourth worst violent crime rate, with an estimated 3.2 people per 100 experiencing a violent crime each year (86,506 total crimes reported). Property crime was also worse than average with an estimated 6.1 incidents per 100 adults (163,211 total). Excessive drinking was another problem area with 21.5% of adults qualifying. The biggest crime Chicagoans face is what the Bears roll out on Sundays in the Fall.”
