NJ has seen a small crime reduction. Which is good, as some of us recall the murders that occurred in Newark which at one point, was ridiculous for a city its size, and so close to the nations largest "safest" big city. Essex County and Camden County are still the major crime centers.

Two of the murders in my county (Somerset) happened less than a mile away from my house. Some kid killed his grandparents by smashing them in the face with a bat while they slept, than went to the Wal Mart with a blood soaked shirt.
