People survive murders because medicine has gotten better. There are more attempts. It’s just that people survive them.
Also, you can’t report crimes against occupants (I know by experience). So yes, crime reports fall.
There used to be a increase of crime but it was because of what the law counts as a crime. And no, non-lethal crime didn't increase so it is not about medicine that is getting better.
France is under occupation by invaders like when France was under occupation by Nazi Germany. Can’t talk. Can’t complain. Can’t address the occupiers.
And we can’t talk about occupation. Like you’re doing now: Downvoting me to hide my speech, so that there is no problem. No crime is a problem if you can move the people who were hurt far enough from your social circle.
Parisians have developed this unique trait of being about to dodge the identity of the people while talking about it: “Man this block is so dangerous, but it’s impressive how one block away, it’s safe. Maybe it’s because it was renovated. The other day, that women arrived at 10 pm, it was dark, the police arrived too late. But I don’t understand, the municipality installed flower pots all along the street, should be safer now!”
See, never mentioning the cause because it’s socially too dangerous.

That is a known fact. Criminality rate drops but french people are feeling more and more insecure.
There is a media oligarchy in France (by billionaires) that pushes anything but left ideas (the left want an exit tax and a wealth tax, the last one is the Zucman tax). The idea that immigrants are criminals is easy to spread as the prison population is clearly different than the mean population of France (for various reasons). They are pushing it so hard that the population is feeling insecure even if the criminality rate drops.
