safety first, richmond!

from the fine folks at rvanews.com..

The Richmond Police Department announced today that Richmond has improved its ranking of the least safe cities in the country, moving from #20 to #49 since 2006. 385 of the largest cities in America were part of the survey.

Crime overall in 2008 is down from previous years…

* Murder down 33 percent
* Rape down 11 percent
* Commercial robbery down 48 percent
* Individual robbery down 16 percent
* Aggravated assault down 8 percent
* Burglary down 3 percent
* Motor vehicle theft down 23 percent

Still, 49th out of 385 least safe cities isn’t where we want to be.


WAY TO GO GUYS! 49TH! i'm so proud.
