Oddbean new post about login | logout @19cbfccb A chart I made a little while ago after reading about murders in Philadelphia. There was another correlated data line, but I've taken that off so it just shows the homicide rate. The data only goes to 2021. https://static.noagendasocial.com/media_attachments/files/111/167/266/523/840/783/original/4bb1d3e4ca2019fe.png
@7750d787 @19cbfccb What did you use to make the chart?
@1a4328b2 @19cbfccb Excel, and the data sources I listed in the subtitle. I interpolated through the gaps in data, and cut it off at 1900. Oh I also used population data from the Penn Libraries statistics to calculate the rates for the older data. It's not that great, but I originally made it just for myself...
