I love how high the curbs seem to be. I hope this finally stops people from treating the sidewalk like a parking lot.

> he Should Not Have Been There.....
Oh, boohoo. I go back there all the time. A lot of people go back there all the time. Trespassing and not hurting anyone (well, except maybe yourself, if you're not being a good trespasser and keeping an eye on your back) really isn't one of those things that you should waste your time getting all huffy about.. Poor kid. Imagine what it must feel like when a train wheel makes a clean slice and you look down to see your leg has been amputated.

JerseycityNJ, I may be wrong and you may be right. I can't find the population breakdown for the various sections of the city, only the totals.
That said, do you know for sure, based on your numbers, whether the population estimates you quoted are based on zip code, census tract, or police district? The crime numbers are by police district, I have a feeling the population counts are based on different borders (for example, Holland Gardens and the adjoining 14th-18th Street neighborhood being 07310 where the rest of "Downtown" is 07302). I'm actually just curious about where the lines are drawn for different things in this town, considering the high amount of disinformation and statistical skewing we're subject to by various parties with specialized agendas. I don't actually care if Downtown is safer than the Heights, I'm just curious what the actual breakdown is. Real numbers tell you a lot more than the people on this site will.

You absolutely should question them because they leave out the variables that are inextricably linked with the numbers - that is, the total population in each district. It's the crime rate, not the crime numbers. "Rate" defines number of incidents compared to the total number of people in the area, i.e. "events per capita", i.e. "the actual statistical chance that something will happen to you". Eastern district has many more people the North. It is safer downtown. This is basic math GnomeGeneral.
