Homicides went up in 2020 and 2021 and are now rapidly coming back down. Violent crime nationwide hasn't increased. But the perception of a crime wave still colors U.S. politics.
No, the article is talking about 2022 and 2023 statistics, where there is in fact a drop. The link posted in this comment only shows data up to 2021.
Actually I don’t know why they didn’t just post the actual source used by the article itself which shows more recent data. Either way, the basic point stands that this “huge drop” is basically a reversion after a large increase in 2020-2021. Things are going “back to normal,” so it’s kind of stupid to pretend this is something we should all be looking at.
Honestly wtf even is this article. The data is basically saying that it is still increasing, just slower than last year.
