^You can put date ranges on the map and limit by type of crime, to understand trends. For example, tracking homicides over the last month, there have been 14* and 12 of them occured on the east side, many within a reasonably small swath mostly along and just north of the Ford Expressway.

Rex, I don't anything we've read suggests he wasn't conscious about violent crime, nor would his decision to live in the City be probative of unconsciousness.

*It was a short month, but let's say there are 15 homicides a month for the rest of year: the end result would be a 40% drop compared to last year's relative new-lows. That would be an outstanding trend. Let's wait and see...and pray for a 100% drop in the senselessness.
It was also a cold month. I shudder to think what summer is going to be like around here.
