More police. But somehow woke this time.

    I don't know about crime generally, but retail has seen dramatic staffing cuts and as a result, shoplifting is up for sure. No data, just reporting from the ground. It's not a problem when they're subtle, but the assholes who push you around to get to the liquor are stressful.

      It's hard to generalize, but I think violent crime is falling from the recent spike, while property crime is stable or even up a little (shoplifting, as you said).
