If a stabbing or shooting happens at the entrance or exit of a T station does the T count the crime or does the state or Boston count the crime? Is crime up down or not even counted on the MBTA

Boston crime is down to the softest levels in recent memory. last time i checked Boston was still in the high 30's for murders when other famous cities are in the hundreds. ive lived in Boston all my life and never felt like i could be a victim of crime and ive been to every corner of the city. go to new orleans or baltimore or any other city thats not soft like Boston has become and you will become a victim of crime within a week.

the worst thing is i party with these so called Boston hoodlums in the clubs and they act like they are about that thug life when in reality the stats show Boston thugs are really not shooting shit up at all. theres cats from Haiti and Cape Verde coming into this city and running shit Boston fell off and is now owned from the outside

So true.... I constantly hear of people around here talk about how dangerous places like Eastie, Dorchester and even Chelsea are when in reality if you compare to other cities like Newark, Camden, Baltimore, D.C. and even parts of New York this place is as friggin utopia. It's all perspective I guess.

So why don't you tell them dudes at the clubs that instead of writing it on the internet people talk big when there's no face your a clown I'm a stabbing victim so shit happens if your out on the streets hanging with other's not sitting in a club what did you get beat up your whole life in the Bean is that why you fled like a coward to other cities?

No way, wouldn't trade this city for any other one in the world. Just saying there's always room for improvement but we should also be proud of how we stack up in the crime department when compared to other cities across the country.

In the northeast, most of the smaller cities are pits, then there's Newark (smaller than Boston, but bigger than Hartford,Springfield, etc.), some sections of NYC, a bug chunk of Philly,.Most of Baltimore, parts if DC. DC is rapidly improving and gentrifing, so many of the long time ghetto folks are being forced out to Maryland. NYC has also dramatically changed, same reasons. The Boston area is as big as DC, bigger than Baltimore, but it's never been as depressing and shitty as those two towns. Even Atlanta is getting more civilized. I've been to N.O.,and it's probably a lost cause,like Detroit.

But it's a lie to say there aren't bad, dangerous neighborhoods in and around Boston. And our yearly murder rates are more like 60-65, not 30s. The Boston area does have it's share of crime, especially related to drug dealing, and those trying to get $ to buy drugs, mostly larcenies, sometimes robberies and assaults. Boston doesn't have the pathetic high number of people (mostly young minority males) being shot and killed on a daily basis.
