Crime In Cities

Crime is a serious problem in big cities and it is getting worse every year. This is what police department around the country said in their reports last week. The subways are more dangerous. The streets are more dangerous. You may not even be safe in your own home. Why is the problem so serious now? This is not an easy question to be answered. There may not be a single answer. Many problems seem to make cities so dangerous.
One of the problems is money. To fight crime in city needs police officers, cars and guns. These cost a lot of money. But right now cities do not have much extra money. So, there are not enough police officer cars and guns for the cities.
Another problem is drugs. Crime studies show that many criminals use and sell drugs. After they start taking drugs, they want to have more. However, drugs are very expensive. So, these people may sell drugs to other people to make money or they may steal money to get more drugs.
There is an even more important cause of crime. Cities have rich and poor neighborhood. In the poor neighborhoods, jobs are hard to find. Many young people don’t have much hope for a better life. They only know one way to make a better living for themselves. That way is to sell drugs or steal. So, some of these young people become criminals.
It is not going to be easy to change these crime problems. We must first change many of the laws about drugs. We must change the way cities spend their money. Until then, the crime problem will not go away and we will live in fear.
