Why would you trust aggregate data any more than (3) eyewitness accounts? You’d need a case study like this of each element that went into it. “Crime tourism” makes sense, Boudin is soft on crime, so do your crime there in SF and you’ll get away with it.

I would actually, yes. I played Lacrosse at Columbine HS, in a very safe neighborhood, suburb of Denver. I knew eyewitnesses who saw what happened there in 1999, and yet...crime in Littleton, CO is very low. A single incident (that has no proof) doesn't tell us much.

Like, let's assume Hakeem is real. Insane people exist everywhere, even in a Mississippi or Louisiana that are very tough on crime (and, shockingly, large cities in MS amd LA have much higher violent crim rates than the Bay area!)

Which cities? I’ve never seen anything like the crime I personally experience in Oakland.

Have you ever lived in like Jackson, Memphis or NOLA? Because if we just go by "personal experience", maybe you're just unlucky or not cautious

Like, by any metric I could find, Oakland is the only city in California in the top 35 most dangerous by either total crime per capita or violent crime per capita, and San Fran is nowhere near that.

You were the one who brought up the greater Bay Area. Oakland prosecutes crime the same way as SF, very lax.

Then why is SF so much lower than Oakland?

What data are you referring to?

San Francisco has half the violent crime rate and a 3rd the homicide rate of Oakland if we compare Oakland PD and SFPD data (for 2020)

I assume it’s just demographics, more low income housing, more homeless encampments. Can I still say that? lol
