This post is not meant to scare my mother or my grandmothers, but I just couldn’t resist mentioning it—
There were 496 homicides in NYC last year, which is the lowest number on record since accurate records started being kept in 1963, and a 17 percent decrease from last year. The mayor and police department are excited about the improvement, especially in West Harlem districts like mine. But, in the 100 square blocks around my house, there were 5 murders, 19 rapes, 326 robberies, and 116 burglaries last year. I am sure that it is just me, and just some trick of population density, but those numbers still seem just a touch high.
