Memphis Mayor Paul Young made the city's population decline, especially among young people, a focal point of his first 100 days speech last April.

Sadly, unless the crime rate drops, more people will be moving out.

The most dangerous city in the United States they do nothing about crime is just a joke

If you're letting the criminals out right after you lock them up, why would people stay there?

I'm definitely working on my exit plan. I'm over being here. Memphis is a dream killer

[@tjhouston1280]

A couple of things on why I’m considering moving. - Too much reliance on church and pastors to fix problems. God can’t fix non, city officials ain’t ready to fix - Crime… - Lack of police concern. And police in general.
