VIOLENT CRIME UP 42% IN DOWNTOWN DALLAS

Leaked report shows crime up, businesses leaving, city collapsing.

Crime is up, arrests are down, and the ball in Downtown Dallas always has lights burned out.

A shocking report commissioned by Downtown Dallas Inc., a non-profit group representing dozens of Dallas businesses, in conjunction with Boston Consulting Group, laid out the bombshell analysis that crime is up 42%—arrests are down—and city officials are left trying to come up with creative excuses to explain away the years of headlines that led us here:

Exit your car at night in Dallas and you’re pretty much a goner. Daytime ain’t much better.

Apparently, the virulently homeless have left Austin and moved to Dallas where they have found their woke policing is much more conducive to their criminal maneuvering. You can see that starting in 2020, arrests plummeted. Many people note this coincides with when George Floyd attempted to pass a counterfeit note, and subsequently ascended to heaven. That is when woke cities, like Dallas, defunded the police.

The report, obtained by Keep Dallas Safe, shows concerning data for the city, with all the telltale signs of being woke:

• 69% of violent crime involves homeless.

• Places like the Dallas Farmers Market, parks, and the Dallas World Aquarium have all seen an increase in crime.

• Motor vehicle theft is double since 2019.

• Arrests in downtown dallas are down, despite crime going up.

• Development is down, and property values are plummeting.

In addition, the report also indicates that AT&T is considering leaving downtown Dallas which, the report estimates, would trigger a 30% decrease in property values and a $62M loss in annual property tax revenue.

The report also highlights that while violent crime in the downtown area of Dallas increased 42%, it decreased in the surrounding areas outside of downtown.

As for non-violent crime, the entire city has seen an increase since 2019.

Hotspot areas for crime were mapped out in the report, specifically highlighting areas often used by families.

Businesses in the area are also spending around $12M a year in private security because they cannot rely on the Dallas Police Department to protect them.
