Crime has decreased by 1% which is good because it makes it a safer place for everybody. I appreciate the police force always doing their job.

Their is a great diverse mixture of people especially in the metropolitan area. My street is mostly quiet but sometimes the streets can be busy. If you want to go shopping you'll have to take public transportation due to the crime.
