Nobody calls Chicago's West Side a liberal utopia.


Gun violence increases are pretty concentrated -- North Side has not seen an increase. The Loop isn't bad.

One big step would be to get guns off the street. In 2021, guns accounted for 93.1% of Chicago homicides, CPD data show. In 2010, guns factored in 80.5% of Chicago homicides. In 2000, the number was 74.8%.

But there are bigger historic problems with those neighborhoods can be addressed -- poverty.
