Yeah, it’s a bit of a mind-twist. Is Berkeley higher in crime because being liberals, they love more laws, so no matter what, you’re breaking some kind of law?

If you look at the home facts website, I don't think that can explain it that way. Failing to properly separate your recycled trash, for instance, can count neither as a violent crime nor a property crime.

I'd think that Berkeley's crime rates are probably influenced upward by its proximity to Oakland. The two cities are right next to each other.

May be a good question for a statistician like John R Lott.

No, the real mind-twist is: do they vote Dem and have a crime rate because they’re poor vs vote R and have a low crime rate because they’re affluent? That would be the lib mantra — must send the lib/crime-ridden cities more money......
