Damn! That's a very quiet area. Hopefully this will spur some outrage and put pressure on JPSO to do something about the rising crime rate in East Jeff.
I think one factor in the rising crime rate in EJ is a function of the ongoing gentrication of parts of New Orleans. The thugs have to go somewhere, some are going east and some are going to Metairie/ Kenner.
When I got divorced in 1995, I lived in an apartement on Pasadena and W. Napolean (before street was there, it was just the canal) and that area was pretty nice and safe. Now, if you go in that area after dark, its kind of scary.

It's not gentrification of New Orleans, it's the typical decline caused by an abundance of apartments in an area. Metairie has far too many and they are getting trashier every year. If you look at the crime maps, those clusters of apartments have always been the focus of crime even before gentrification started.
