US Crime Rates At Historic Lows
The FBI released its latest Uniform Crime Reporting survey last week that revealed a notable positive trend continuing across the US—with violent and property crimes dropping by double digits.Compared to January through March 2023, data from the first quarter of 2024 indicates that reported violent crime decreased by 15.2 percent.
Murder decreased by more than 26 percent.
Rape is down by 25.7 percent.
Robbery dropped by 17.8 percent.
Aggravated assault reports decreased by 12.5 percent.
Property crime also decreased by just over 15 percent.
The report includes data from more than 18,000 city, county, state, tribal, university and college, and federal law enforcement agencies.

Surging crime levels, out-of-control Democratic cities and 'migrant crime.'
Former President Donald Trump regularly cites all three at his campaign rallies, in news releases and on Truth Social, often saying President Joe Biden and Democrats are to blame.
But the crime picture Trump paints contrasts sharply with years of police and government data at both the local and national levels.
FBI statistics released this year suggested a steep drop in crime across the country last year. It's a similar story across major cities, with violent crime down year over year in Chicago, New York and Washington, D.C.
NBC News analyzed crime data to evaluate Trump's assertions about the topic.

Democratic Administrations Have Economic Advantage Since 1949
Since 1949, there has been a Democratic advantage in the average performance of key macroeconomic indicators measuring economic health, including:Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth
Job growth
Unemployment rate
Growth in inflation-adjusted wages
Growth of market-based incomes per capita
Inflation
Interest rates
This Democratic advantage is across the board in all variables we measure but strongest in private-sector outcomes—notably, business investment, job growth, and the growth of market-based incomes.
Household income growth (adjusted for inflation) was faster on average and far more equal during Democratic administrations, and the Democratic advantage shows up for every group.
