Maybe they are just smarter?

15 days vs 45 days. I don’t like the crime in Uptown, but I don’t generally feel it amazingly unsafe. I do find it less safe than when we lived in Lincoln Park. However, there have also been 50 crimes in the last 15 days there too. This also validates the niceness I feeling Lincoln Square/North Center.
Much of the crimes in Uptown are drug related or between gang members. The others could just be the difference in enforcement, but I don’t think so. Either way, more evidence of a good move that will decrease our exposure to it. I hope the CPD can clean up Uptown while we are gone ahead of us selling our condo in a few years.
