As we have all come to be aware with change is certainly inevitable. From trends, technology, to even what we eat everything around us can usually be seen changing fast or slow. Usually, one expects change to be simply good or bad. In so many instances we have seen things go from one to the other or back in a matter of days, and even moments. However, change is inevitable especially as we begin to look at a new day, a new month, and a new year.
With it being the beginning of 2012 many people have this year in mind with New Year’s resolutions, goals, and even making plans for future events. One last look at the year of 2011 shows us that we certainly have a positive precedent set towards that of crime. Studies before the end of the year showed us that crime in Texas not only decreased significantly, but also that of the crime nationwide.
Violent crimes were lowered greatly in the past year, which include but are not limited to that of robbery, murder, and even rape. In Texas these crimes went down significantly 22 percent of that of the year previous to it. Rape overall was lowered by 6.5 percent, which contributed to the national rate dropping to 5.1 percent.
Many studies have factored in many different variables in order to try to understand why the number has decreased in such a positive manner. Reports state that due to increased security and police efforts many cities cross the country is becoming safer and safer as each day passes. Due to technology today many law enforcement entities are able to easily not only track, but also map down crime in order to help aide future efforts that may occur to crack down on a specific crime.
Overall, we can see that 2011 certainly did leave us in a new year with a new mind set on crime. With crime becoming lower and lower over time one can only assume that the number will become lessened within the future.
