Yea, CT as a whole has been trending downward pretty decently for the last ten years. It also wasn't hit nearly as hard by the Covid crime spike that a lot of rest of the country saw.

I also thought you were the other guy and definitely coulda been less snarky. But yea, exactly. The most dangerous city in CT is still a pretty safe place to be. Just "menacing" seems like a fairly accurate term to me if you're used to the rest of CT lol.

Well...we're 25 days into 2023 so we're not going to have much data for that. We'll look at 2022. Again, this has to be one of the easiest statistics to verify so it's kinda weird to even question it.

Data straight from CT government - look at New Haven lit up like a fucking Christmas tree:

And if you REALLY wanna get spicy, take a journey through the FBIs UCR for CT:

New Haven is statistically one of the most dangerous cities in CT. It’s great that you haven’t had any issues but you’re just objectively wrong that it’s a “safe” city to live (compared to other CT cities). It’s weird you’re even trying to say otherwise when crime statistics are something that’s super easy to verify.

Think ya missed the joke on that one…

You can heavily dispute it all you want, you’ll still be wrong

Sorry but you’re heavily misremembering. Not denying climate change, but temperatures and snowfall totals have not significantly changed in MA since at least the 80s (as far back as I’ve gone extensively). In fact, the 2010s was one of the best decades in over 100 years for a good winter.

I’m trying to find a comment I already made that has specific numbers but you can look it up yourself pretty quickly.
