That’s definitely not what Helen said. You don’t deserve Nancy Drew btw.

Unfortunately crime rates nearly always increase when prices of rent/gas/groceries increase but wages don’t. I personally have noticed an apparent increase in assaults and similar crimes but even in my neighborhood things like car prowling, auto theft, etc don’t seem to have increased significantly. It’s hard to tell considering many go unreported because reporting is often a waste of time.

I believe this is the lady (all middle aged blonde women look the same to her😂) that told my newly 18 year old daughter that she was going to “make crime illegal again” and my daughter thought she was joking & laughed. When she realized that she was serious my daughter just told her that not all poor people are stupid (we live in a neighborhood where most people are at or below the poverty level) like they think then came in and closed the door.
