If you did not listen/watch Mayor Scott’s address to the city, you are missing out./

First you can find it here.

Second, let’s highlight some of the big wins.

“And here we are, four years later. There were 335 homicides in 2020. There were 201 in 2024.

That’s down 40%. Shootings were down 43% over that time.

In the first few months of 2025, we have had the fewest homicides in 50 years.

Think about that. Baltimore has less violence today than we’ve had in 50 years. Robberies are down 23% since last year. Carjackings are down 19%. Auto thefts are down 40%.

Every year, U-S News puts out a list of the 25 most dangerous cities in America.

This year, Memphis was number one. Followed by St. Louis... Detroit... Birmingham... Little Rock... New Orleans... Cleveland... Kansas City... Myrtle Beach... Denver...

And I could keep going. Baltimore isn’t on the list."

This is amazing news. This means the city is thriving. This means the city is changing.

I hope everyone who knows this city sees these stats. This is huge news.

Proud of my city.
