I used to live in Berkeley, and two people were robbed at gun point in my neighborhood. Shit like this happens everywhere. I don't think Berkeley is that much safer than Oakland. Just my opinion.
Shit happens everywhere. The BPD, unlike the OPD, is excellent at follow up. That's what makes all the difference, and makes one place safer than another.
I don't agree with that. I had two home burglaries. Never any followup from them on that. Again, sample size is everything.
