I live in NY. Most people in NY will not agree with this article.
This is not because sensationalist media has successfully tricked them into thinking there is more crime than there is, but because they have directly experienced the rise in crime in their daily lives.
- drewcoo 4y ago> This is not because sensationalist media has successfully tricked them into thinking there is more crime than there is . . . it's because they never leave the metro area or even consider conditions anywhere else. That was my experience living there, anyway. A glaring blindness to anything not NY, where everything happens.
- whimsicalism 4y agoJust like most people would say that living conditions have gotten worse in the past 50 years. People will say all sorts of kooky things based on vibes.
- halfmatthalfcat 4y agoCrime is up across the entire country, especially in large urban metros. That being said NYC is still incredibly safe relative to its size. New Yorkers need some perspective. I'm writing from Chicago after having moved from NYC last year.
