London Violent Crime Plunges, Homicide Rate Lower Than Paris, Berlin, and U.S. States
London has witnessed a significant decrease in violent crime, homicides, and burglary rates. This positive trend can be attributed to the dedicated efforts of the police and London’s Violence Reduction Unit. Consequently, residents are now statistically less likely to experience assault or other forms of violence compared to the rest of England and Wales. This decline has resulted in tens of thousands fewer victims of crime.
