Church Hill was recently ranked as the 10th most dangerous neighborhood in the entire country. This, however, is not accurate, as the area considered in this study is actually known as Church Hill North: a distinctly separate neighborhood containing the Mosby Court housing project north of Church Hill proper. The area in question is contained within the boundaries of the Church Hill Central Neighborhood and Church Hill North Old and Historic District.

Famous quotes containing the word crime:
“Although good early childhood programs can benefit all children, they are not a quick fix for all of society’s ills—from crime in the streets to adolescent pregnancy, from school failure to unemployment. We must emphasize that good quality early childhood programs can help change the social and educational outcomes for many children, but they are not a panacea; they cannot ameliorate the effects of all harmful social and psychological environments.”
—Barbara Bowman (20th century)
“Squeeze human nature into the straitjacket of criminal justice and crime will appear.”
—Karl Kraus (1874–1936)
“There is no scandal like rags, nor any crime so shameful as poverty.”
—George Farquhar (1678–1707)
