I can tell you for a fact, that many have left, and it was directly due to a job loss.
However, the crime in the S. Cal region has been dropping for *years* now, not just since the economic downturn of the past 3 years.
The Sheriff’s department was inept and borderline corrupt under Sherman Block. The change of leadership at top may have helped.
“Interesting you mention that.

Many of the illegals have left the cities and are now working for the cartels in the rural areas where they’re growing dope.
Crime sure isn’t down in my rural California county, it’s all the Sheriff can do to keep up with the aliens.
