First, you're right, some types of serious violent and property crime have increased in NYC, sometimes even up to early 2000s level.
How is "crime" being measured in this instance (specifically referring to retail theft as pertains to the topic)? Are they counting number of instances where something is stolen, or number of persons arrested/charged/convicted of retail theft, or the value of the merchandise stolen? Because one person stealing $500 worth of merchandise could be considered "less crime" compared to 50 people stealing $5 each, but the first is a bigger hit to the bottom line.
