I think it is because the poor people/violent elements have been displaced by cost of living and a tidal wave of hipsters.
The poverty rate in NYC has increased a bit over the last 20 years. From 13 to 15%. https://www.statista.com/statistics/205495/poverty-rate-in-new-york/#0 …
FWIW, the earlier numbers were for New York State. In NYC, the poverty rate has been ~20% since 1980. Low of 19.1%. High of 21.2%. Currently ~20.6%. So no correlation with the decline in the murder rate.
But rates climb in London.
Yeah, I think the rollback on stop and search was the problem here.
Yes, the disproportionate searching of certain groups lead to its banning -- the groups responsible for a disproportionate amount of street crime!
Hello Mc Fly they aren't arresting people as much... Hence the decline. And your from Harvard. I'd ask for a refund...
It’s partly that New York City is also a wealthy city. People would rather have jobs than have to rob banks and go to jail, and the wealth eventually flows down to everyone, including in police resources.
As the fundamentalist Left tries to savage you, Dr. Pinker, keep your head up. Even when I disagree with your conclusions I recognize that your work is fascinating and useful. We need your honest voice. Center and Right’d love to have you. Only people like you can refom the Left

Of course there is still much more to be done .. but in all probability, the facts show a good trend. The urgent challenge today is to stop violence against women. http://www.elmundo.es/papel/2018/01/12/5a577b2eca4741687c8b465b.html …pic.twitter.com/lY2hgzqqVS

Haven't read the article but assume it's all thanks to Donald Trump?
Thanks @realDonaldTrump for #MAGA after these #LiberalTerrorists were destroying it. Put these low life on the front lines with no ammunition and instantly, Make The World Great Again #MTWGA
Because they cleaned it up with Stop-and-frisk the left call racist... because minorites are still cancer that causes most violent crimes.
We may still have far to go but it's incredible how far we've come
