(In 2009)
The incidence of violent crimes such as murder, rape and aggravated assault ...plunged 16.6% in Phoenix
Mr. Crump said Phoenix's most recent data for 2010 indicated still lower crime. For the first quarter of 2010, violent crime was down 17% overall in the city, while homicides were down 38% and robberies 27%, compared with the same period in 2009.
