Even though Austin is more than twice the size now than it was during the 90s, we have been having fewer murders each year over the last dozen+ years than we did back in the 90s. In 1991, the year of the famous yogurt shop murders, there were 47 murders. There were 33 murders last year in Austin. Austin's population in 1990 was 472,020, while it was 790,390 in 2010.
