KCMO set an annual murder record at 184 this year. How did StL do?

I didn’t think there were homeless populations outside of the big metro areas.  

They use to be on Commercial Street then they closed the Missouri Hotel. Scattered Homeless all over.

 

They have the Kitchen on Glenstone and Homeless just follow.

STL has always sucked for murders per capita, but I worked in Springfield a couple of months ago for several days and I couldn’t help but notice things and people seem to be on a downhill path….so to speak 😂

STL normally has around 200 per year.  2023 has 158 down 20% from last year but in 2023:     
 

“Homicides determined to be justifiable are not included in the total count“

They changed the metric and the mayor and police chief are crowing about what a great job they did 😂.   People in the know aren’t fooled

All killings are justifiable, to the one doing the killing.

I don’t, and never have lived in STL City proper where that number comes from.  The city population makes up a very small percentage of the metropolitan area population.   Same in KC I think??

There are.  In Jefferson City a population of 42,535 there are approximately 60-70 homeless people, most are in shelters and might have kids as well.  But there are at least at least a dozen individuals or so that are not going to shelters. They sleep in makeshift camps along the river, under bridges, in creek tunnels, abandoned buildings, etc.  You can go downtown during the day and see them hanging around the Library or different other places walking around with backpacks, blankets, other carriers, etc. Most don't want any help and to be left alone.  But a few may try to panhandle some, but a majority do not.

And that is another thing around JC.  Panhandling...  Lots of people do it all around JC and most are not really in need of anything.  They have cell phones, cars, etc.  I wish the city would prevent that but they do nothing.

There was a guy that panhandled at the intersection, 2 blocks from our offices.  Multiple people offered him jobs here.  He not only didn’t want a job he got angry if you offered him one.  We literally can’t hire enough people.  Amazon and GM advertise for help it’s so badly needed.  Crazy.
