Murders are down this year compared to 2016, but carjackings(the new crime spree in town) are up by 200 more than last year.

Because the State is so screwed up. Even the Governor admits this. Somehow he expects the voters to give him a second term, but that's another story. Actually, most of the crime is in neighborhoods nobody even visits.

We have enough of those that already exist.

Chicagoland housing is still a great deal compared to similar cities.
Oh I know. But playing with simpletons can be fun.

Exactly including in the areas of the city I mentioned which is why people living there keep saying they no longer feel safe on those places and are leaving

Then why are people who actually live in those areas saying that for the very first time they feel unsafe and are leaving? So many who have been interviewed say this and I know several people who live in many of those areas who all say the exact same thing. Why is it that the population keeps dropping in the city because people are leaving as crime is getting worse? Why are people afraid to move here?

I personally have mentioned a couple of people that I have been in touch with who came here and loved it and wanted to move here real bad. One is finally deciding not too because crime is getting worse instead of better and the other who was recently accepted into DePaul is getting ready to back out for the same reason

As usual you dodge everything I have said I wonder why. You can cry all day again if you like but you are not going to convince the people who keep leaving the city and you are not going to convince those who want to move here and are not because they now fear the city
