Related: There are reasons that the National Crime Victimization Survey isn’t a great measure - national doesn’t mean it hasn’t risen in your neighborhood, the likelihood that a crime is not reported because pandemic / calling police can be dangerous too - but I’m curious where the politicians are getting the facts they’re using in their ads if it’s not from there.
