@baldchip & @scubagirl, what would you do to reduce crime? Make improvements to your city, maybe? Reduce poverty (which has a direct correlation to crime)? ...because that's what Durham has been doing and one reason that you're reading this story on WRAL.

to all the people talking about violence, its not just a Durham thing its an American thing. violence is all over the place read the news... we are nothing in numbers compared to other places. I think people have to have a negative to go with a positive just to balance themselves out sometimes smh.

What I got from this story is that people were coming up with ideas and getting involved. That's always good.

"Tackling the gentrification in Durham could be an interesting project."

Yeah, because the last thing we'd want is for a city to become wealthier, safer, cleaner, and a more desirable place to live.

While other cities stagnate, Durham keeps improving...keeps up the forward thinking...keeps evolving. Yay, Durham!
