San Diego's crime rate in the first four months of this year was the lowest since at least 1990, Mayor Kevin Faulconer and Police Chief Shelley Zimmerman reported Friday.
They said crime was down 9.7 percent overall from the same period last year and was lower in all seven major categories.
As we head into peak travel season, San Diegans and visitors alike can rest assured that our city remains one of the safest in America thanks to the tireless efforts of our police officers, Faulconer said. This report shows that our officers are doing an incredible job by protecting the public and forging bonds with residents in all neighborhoods.
We also don't achieve these outcomes by ourselves, the chief said. It is because of the cooperation and collaboration with our law enforcement partners and our community members.
