Chicago Alderman Sees Progress in Crime Reduction Efforts

By Sarah Thompson
(The Center Square) – Chicago Alderman David Moore is optimistic about the progress being made in reducing violent crime in the city. He notes a significant decrease in crime rates and a noticeable change in the overall atmosphere in some of the city’s most vulnerable areas.

According to Chicago Police Department data, violent crime numbers have dropped by 24% compared to the previous year. This positive trend was evident during the recent Memorial Day weekend, where the number of shooting victims was halved compared to the same period in 2024. Fatal shootings also decreased from 12 to 4 over the holiday weekend.

Alderman Moore, who previously took proactive measures by spending a night on a crime-ridden street corner in Englewood, believes that residents are starting to feel safer in their neighborhoods. He commended the efforts of District Commanders and emphasized the importance of staying proactive in maintaining the current progress.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson’s violence intervention program, which focuses on community outreach and investing in young people, has been credited for contributing to the positive change. However, Alderman Moore also acknowledges the crucial role played by Police Superintendent Larry Snelling and the dedication of the police force in improving public safety.

Despite facing budget cuts in safety grant community programs from the U.S. Department of Justice, city officials remain hopeful that local organizations will continue to receive support to sustain their services and outreach efforts.
