Table 7.1 SJ UCR 2004-2014 According to the information presented above, from the UCR, we can see how most of the crimes have increased between 2004 and 2014. The two exceptions are rape and aggravated assault, which have thankfully showed a decrease. murder rape robbery aggravated assault burglary 2004 19 337 677 3,895 2,670 2014 3,242 306 1,072 1,832 5,167 (Sources:https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/crime-in-the-u.s/2014/crime-in-the-u.s.-2014/tables/table-8/table-8-by-state/Table_8_Offenses_Known_to_Law_Enforcement_by_California_by_City_2014.xls and https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/crime-in-the-u.s/2000)

NCVS The following table 8.1 shows statistics taken from the NCVS of a ten year span between 2004 and the most current 2014.

Table 8.1 SJ NCVS 2004-2014 2004 2014 According to the information presented above we can see the statistics between both sources. The only problem is that the NCVS only showed the national average. So, it was a little difficult to compare the results, but it still gives you an idea of both. UCR NCVS Rape 337 255,769 306 284,345 Robbery 677 616,419 1,072 664,211 (Sources: http://www.bjs.gov/index.cfm?ty=nvat)

Media The City of san Jose does have a newspaper known as “Mercury News”. They also have a beautiful website that provides its audience with every possible question or detailed information about the city. It contains statistics, past ballots, events, programs, departments, and much more. (Sources: http://www.sanjoseca.gov/)

Social Science Journal According to the San Jose statistical area the average mean salary in May 2014 was a $36.43. According to the united States Bureau of labor, San Jose has an estimated 60% above the nationwide average, which is $22.71. This is great for the city of San Jose and it is also demonstrated in the low unemployment rate that was provided to you before. The top two occupations in the were and continue to be the computer and mathematical fields that flourish through this wonderful city. This is just a reminder of why this city is considered the Capital of Silicon Valley. (Sources:http://www.bls.gov/regions/west/news-release/occupationalemploymentandwages_sanjose.htm)

Social Science Journal This next journal takes a deeper look in the increasing rate of crime in the City of San Jose. Apparently, more recently, San Jose has become victim of increased crime. In this article it states that “once known as the safest big city [in the United States is now even more dangerous than the country itself].” The crime rate has doubled in the last eight years and apparently residents of San Jose and city members are looking for ways to provide more funding to help reduce the crime rates.

Policy and Theory People have began to engage in deviant behavior which has lead to the increase in homicide in San Jose, Ca. Deviant behavior occurs when an individual engages in activity against societies norms. Murdering someone is not a norm in our society and individual are doing this for person reasons. The conflict theory is the theory that I believe makes a deviant individual. It is a theory that “draw[s] attention to power differentials, such as class conflict, and generally contrast historically dominant ideologies.” These can be some of the reasons in which individuals become deviant. San Jose doesn’t have an extremely high poverty rate, but most individuals involved in murders are gang related. That demonstrates that there is a power incentive that drive individuals to committing crimes. A solution to this problem was presented to the residents of Santa Clara County in the 2012 November ballot. The county proposed a “Santa Clara County Sales Tax Increase” (Measure A) to its residents. This measure would increase taxes to sales in order to pay for more programs to prevent crime and help recruit and pay officers more to keep the city safe. The measure did pass thankfully and although, the measure hasn’t made an impact yet, due to the increase crime rate, it is an initiative to improving the city and hopefully making it a safe city as it once was.
