Atlanta is the ultimate out of sight out of mind city.
- colpabar 3y agoIt must be all those damn republican mayors they’ve had over the years :^)
- elif 3y agoYou could be onto something. Maybe infrastructure which supports affordable car ownership would help SF.
- elif 3y agothank you for sharing the wikipedia page. it looks like the only category of crime more prevalent in atlanta than san francisco is aggravated assault. simple assault is not included in violent crime statistics in this chart for whatever reason. I would imagine that this has something to do with atlanta being in an open carry state with no restrictions on gun ownership, and thus more crimes committed involve a gun and would explain why violent crime is statistically higher even though san francisco has 19% more crime overall. you know, out of chart, out of mind.
