Why didn’t they do that last year or the year before?





The murder rate has steadily been dropping. Actually the murder rate has been steadily dropping nationwide.

Nola was at 151 in 2017 with a population of about 393K . NYC had 290 murders with a population of over 8.6 million. Less than twice the murders, abut 22 times the population. It may be going in the right direction but it still has a long way to go.

I moved to Austin from NO and still can't believe Austin's numbers. Almost 1 million people in city limits and less than 40 murders.
