Statistics: Serious offenses fall 14%, but robbery, assault on the rise.
Crime in the Santa Clarita Valley hit a four-year low in 2008, according to statistics released Wednesday by the Santa clarita Valley sheriff's station.
Several factors are the reason to the decrease, including targeted gang enforcement and increased communications with residents through e-mail, the station's Web site, the media, homeowners associations and Neighborhood Watch groups. Plus, deputies continued their intervention work with at-risk youths.
According to La Berge, Santa Clarita Valley sheriff Station, is the biggest challenge now dealing with a troubled economy, troubled housing and job markets that can heighten both domestic and business tensions.
