So, How Bloody Was It?
The answer, my friends, depends on who you ask.
-
The Gloom and Doom Brigade: If you listen to the rumor mill, you might think San Diego turned into Gotham City. But fear not, the sky isn't falling (yet). There were 107 homicides in the San Diego region in 2022.
-
The Silver Linings Squad: Look at the bright side, folks! This is actually a 9% decrease from 2021. We're talking progress, people!
But wait, there's more!
San Diego's police department boasts one of the lowest violent crime rates of major cities in the nation. So, take a deep breath, San Diego is still a pretty chill place to hang ten (or whatever the cool kids are doing these days).
