> ...yet it seems like people think of it as a very high crime area. I wonder why.
from wikipedia:
"Bayview-Hunters Point is predominantly African-American. The neighborhood has a population of 20,322 and is roughly 60% African-American, the highest concentration of that ethnic group in San Francisco."
The article on the community is quite lengthy and interesting:
I've never lived in San Francisco and don't know whether this community has a bad rep. because it's mostly black or if it really is as crime-ridden as its reputation.
I think we can all agree that this kind of data analysis is really important though, to understand where we live and shape public policy.
