A majority of the victims are between the ages of 16-27 for the most part, and the offenders range all over. But yes, juvenile crime is also on the rise but the data is hard for me to get publicly. Someone smarter or more connected could probably pull the numbers out.

Yeah, probably.

Context is interesting. We hit 200 on the second-to-last day of the year. Homicides over all are currently down 11% from 2021. As of June, they were still up 16%, so the entirety of the decrease has come in the second half of this year.

Given the very recent trends, I'd expect that to continue with a big drop in the first half of 2023.
