Slightly higher ratio for the east side, but it isn't so "cut and dried" as people would like you to believe. I live east of 35, and we have some of the lowest crime in the city of Austin. North of town and west of 35 (north central Austin) is as bad anywhere in the city. It would be the last place in Austin I would live.

You can see the void in murders around the French Place/Mueller area east of 35 (immediately NE of downtown) from the earlier attachment, and a concentration of murders west of 35 on the north side...so it depends where you live specifically, not "what side of the highway" you're on.
