if all crime was actually reported and not covered up by the chief and mayor Da Bury would be number one.
NO surprise there...
Surprised Cambridge didn't make the list! Salisbury is no surprise!
Highest property crime rate in MD?
OCEAN CITY!!!!
At least we're #1 in that!! WOO HOO!!!!
SMH!!
OC's crime rate would be a lot worse if the police were allowed to make arrests, which they can do only in the most serious cases. Most of the crime is downtown but too many officers are uptown. We can't have a heavy police presence where all the thugs are, when the assaults, intimidation, and harassment are taking place.
Again, what in the heck are you doing to this town, Rick Meehan? Stop lying to us. OC is not safe. Tourists are leaving and never coming back. Your plan to bring all the ghetto people here is a failure. Please resign or don't run for re-election so someone else can clean up the mess you have created.
the shore sucks
If you think it sucks then by all means get the hell out of here! This Peninsula we live on has many small town communities that do not have high crime rates, and neighbors help each other, and treat each other with respect. Ocean City and some of the Salisbury area do not fall under that category.
Glad I moved out. The drive sucks, but my taxes are lower, property values are doing better, any my neighbors are nicer.
Last week, with my wife, my daughter and her husband, and our three grandkids, we laid out on a clean, safe, smoke-free, white-sand beach during the day; had lunch at a boardwalk stand that hasn't changed since we were our grandkid's ages; had a wonderful dinner together on the beautiful bay during sunset; then hit the Boardwalk every night.
We saw a laser show; we went on (almost) ALL the rides; we won stuffed animals. One night we watched fireworks and listened to a great band from our blankets on the beach.
We strolled the Boardwalk together every night - from 10th Street to the inlet. The kids loved people watching!
Got home around 10:30 every night and played games around the dining room table until the grandkids passed out.
Then we sat on the balcony with cocktails, listened to the surf, and watched the night-life crowd take over the night, and remembered the days when we were part of that.
Yeah... Ocean City...What a hell-hole.
We've already made our reservations for next year - unless we finally decide to buy our retirement condo in OC this winter.
Whoever did that piece certainly wasn't in the same Ocean City we were in last week.
Ocean City: "Would you want to live here?" they ask.
Hell yes. I do - and have for 25 years.
I know nothing about State statistics, but I'm just guessing that if you transferred the "personal property crime rate" of Ocean City to ANY other city in MD with over 250,000 people, that city would be rated among the safest in the State.
As many other of these "surveys" have incorrectly portrayed, they are basing their stats on a population of less than 7000, which is what OC has.
Would I live here? My only regret is that I didn't move here (from Baltimore) years earlier.
Then you do not know the year-round citizens of Ocean City.
Jake says it doesn't matter if you think positive
I really hate it when people tell others to leave the town or area in which they live.
If you don't like it here, then leave!
I might not like it here. I might talk about why I don't like it here. But that doesn't mean I want to leave the place in which I was born.
Stop telling other people what to do. Simply state your opinion about their opinion. Why do you think you have some right to tell others where they should live?
