2009 Times overview[edit]

There is a section in the David Dinkins article named "A 2009 Lookback" which could house the material below as a subsection called "Crime" but that would probably overwhelm the other items listed there.

copy of text[edit]

In 2009, The New York Times reported that although Mayor Dinkins's treatment of crime during his administration fared poorly in popular memory, he contributed significantly to the lowering of crime in New York.^[1] Under Dinkins' Safe Streets, Safe Cities program, crime in New York City decreased more dramatically and more rapidly, both in terms of actual numbers and percentage, than at any time in modern New York City history.^[2] The rates of most crimes, including all categories of violent crime, made consecutive declines during the last 36 months of his four-year term, ending a 30-year upward spiral and initiating a trend of falling rates that continued beyond his term.^[3] Despite the actual abating of crime, Dinkins was hurt by the perception that crime was out of control during his administration.^[4]Dinkins also initiated a hiring program that expanded the police department nearly 25%. The New York Times reported, "He obtained the State Legislature’s permission to dedicate a tax to hire thousands of police officers, and he fought to preserve a portion of that anticrime money to keep schools open into the evening, an award-winning initiative that kept tens of thousands of teenagers off the street."^[1]^[5]
