SANTA MONICA, Calif.—Some Santa Monica residents say they fear that their neighborhoods are becoming more prone to crime amid a recent trend of attacks on U.S. Postal Service (USPS) mail carriers and the release of a new study that identifies their city among a list of the least safe cities in the nation.
“I’ve seen a huge shift in the crime [and] in the way that the city is being led, and the way that we are responding to this crisis in Santa Monica,” 20-year resident and teacher Chie Lunn told The Epoch Times.
