Adjusted for population, I think that’s comparable with (or even slightly higher than) Philadelphia’s 2023 murder rate to date, which is surprising to me.

Still lower than Baltimore...even using 42 this year it's 42/5.7 = 7.24.

But yeah...crime is definitely creeping up in DC, even if the homicide doesn't really affect people west of 16th St. NW.

The fact that it’s this close to Baltimore is more a reflection of how bad East DC is becoming.

One in Coconut Grove yesterday, man shot his 3 year old (and then turned the gun on himself)... disgusting.
