There has been a significant surge in murder and violent crimes in San Antonio this year. “According to a recent study, the violent crime rate is projected to grow by 52.5 percent by December, the highest spike among 21 of the nation’s largest cities” (Eaton). So what is the reason for this massive increase in San Antonio crime? The San Antonio police chief, William McManus stated that “there is no one reason why violent crime and murder are rising so fast — both locally and nationwide” (Eaton). His answer coincides with my hypothesis and research outcomes as well. My research shows that San Antonio’s crime rate increase can be attributed to a myriad of social, economic, and governmental factors. These include, but are not limited to, population
With economic decline in full effect, the city of Anderson is on track to become a ghost town. Anderson is located in Northern California, 150 miles north of Sacramento, and a 10-minute drive to Redding. The primary source of the problem is in Anderson’s Downtown which is defined as I-5 to 273 and North Street to Balls Ferry (See Reference 1). Nearby attractions include the Sacramento River, Turtle Bay Exploration Park, and the Mt Shasta Mall (Things Web). However, all the main attractions are found in the Redding city. Why did Anderson become a “Bedroom City” to Redding (Kiser)? Some believe that because of the lack of popularity in Anderson, it is very hard to keep a business up and running before it is closed. Most citizens will go to a larger city to shop before they shop in their hometown because the big city will have more variety. Jeff Kiser,
First we see the conflict between Mayor Jones and Athens resident Velma Dinkley. Velma represents a new group of residents in the city and she also represents a group known as the District Society of Young Professionals. This is a new group that is supposed to be helping the city grow back to its former glory. The residents feel that their voices aren’t being heard by city officials like the Mayor and his city manager, and are threatening to leave if the city keeps ignoring them or their demands aren’t met soon. We can see this happening from the amount of letters that the Mayor has received recently, in that if they don’t adhere to their demands for what they want for the city they will leave. This type of conflict shows that a lack of communication is a big problem for the city of Athens. Even though the mayor had outlined a step-by-step plan on how to fix the issues the city has been having including building a jazz club, some themed nightclubs, and etc. all of which had gotten the attention of the Young Professionals, they still feel it is not enough. The Young Professionals feel that the city officials aren’t doing enough to promote or communicate the activities that are going on in the city and its daily activities and they feel that more can be done to communicate this to the city’s

The urban poor are often put out of view because of the need for an industrialized society, yet the consequences of both an elite and middle class directly influence the people who cannot support that type of lifestyle. The gaps created need to be looked upon and treated, as Mike Davis believes this planet will become so dependent on slum life that urban life will disappear.
The city that I want to focus is Concepcion Quezaltepeque, Chalatenango El Salvador, which is the city I lived for many years in my life. This is one of the cities that is located in one of the smallest countries of Central America. Many years ago this city was in very bad shape, its infrastructures were weaker and the economy was too, but then a lot of people decided to travel to the United States in order to help their families to have a better life and to improve their houses, some of them even made new homes for their love ones. Also, around five years ago a new mayor was elected by the people, and this mayor and his colleagues did many good things for the city. For example, it created a program to give people materials that were used to

Furthermore, he attempts to dispel the negative aspects of gentrification by pointing out how some of them are nonexistent. To accomplish this, Turman exemplifies how gentrification could positively impact neighborhoods like Third Ward (a ‘dangerous’ neighborhood in Houston, Texas). Throughout the article, Turman provides copious examples of how gentrification can positively change urban communities, expressing that “gentrification can produce desirable effects upon a community such as a reduced crime rate, investment in the infrastructure of an area and increased economic activity in neighborhoods which gentrify”. Furthermore, he opportunistically uses the Third Ward as an example, which he describes as “the 15th most dangerous neighborhood in the country” and “synonymous with crime”, as an example of an area that could “need the change that gentrification provides”.
Four years ago the good citizens of this city voted to allow city funds to be allocated toward a new civic center located in the heart of Irvine. Four years ago the good citizens of this great city had no idea that a terrible pandemic would threaten their very lives and the lives of their loved ones. When signs of the flu season came around in late October this year, no one would have imaged that a disease, often with symptoms like a common cold, would have by the end of the year killed almost half of those killed in the Great War itself. Places all across the nation have had to deal with the sick and dying and Irvine is no exception.
Horror In Raccoon! More Victims Dead” (You could only wonder what this means for the city.) “Raccoon City – The bodies of a young couple were found early Sunday morning in Victory Park, making Deanne Rusch and Christopher Smith the eight and ninth victims in the reign of violence that has terrorized the city since mid-May of this year.” As you read on you find out that these victims suffered the same wounds as the previous victims. All is quiet again for about another month due to the Raccoon Police enforcing a citywide curfew and barricading areas near where the murders took place. After that month of somewhat normalness you read the newspaper to find that something will be done to help out the city.
The family is upset about the town because on their street, there are multiple vacant lots and they would like to see the state take action to filled the empty lots with barricades. By doing so, the empty lots would not fill as easily and would help with the problem of the street becoming flooded so quickly. the family is nervous about future storms. As we were interviewing, they explained how every storm is considered to be a big storm because of the streets flood so easily. The family felt fortunate enough to have had minimal damage because they talked to us about how some of their neighbors had to move out. Another reason why the family is upset with the state is because they know friends and neighbors who are not home and they feel that the state is not making progress for those people. They feel frustrated that they cannot
