55% (35) of the 63 cities I've got info on, saw declines in their homicide rates from 2021; 41% (26) of the 63 cities saw increases; two cities (Albuquerque and Albany) had the same number of homicides from '21...
At least 6 cities tied or set record numbers in homicides for a single year: Albuquerque, Tacoma, Albany, Portland, St Paul, and Raleigh...
So the pandemic-era increases of '20 and '21 appear to be coming down nationwide, at least for one year...
