Nov. 7 (UPI) -- For the first time in 13 years, the majority of Americans do not believe crime is a very or extremely serious problem, a Gallup poll released Wednesday indicates.
Forty-nine percent of respondents said crime is a very or extremely serious problem, while 50 percent said it was a moderate or not at all serious problem. The number of people who believe it is a serious problem dropped 10 percentage points from 2017 when it was 59 percent.
