Administrations of both parties have attempted to tackle the city's crime problem for decades by deploying federal resources with mixed results.

Why is this? Is this unique to Chicago?

Sadly, Chicago has been a center of criminal activity for a long time, and criminal activity, typically emanating from Chicago, has even affected the politics of the state at large. For example, if memory serves 5 out of the last 8 or 9 governors of the state have been indicted, and four of them have gone to prison. And there has been trouble for the current governor, J.B. Pritzker, as well:

Chicago has also been dominated by Democratic government for a long time, so it has the same problems that other such cities have had. Since it's a larger city, though, it's gangs and its death count are higher as well.

By the way, I write this as an aggrieved citizen of the Peoples Republic of Illinois.

@KeithThroop Of course! The "administrations of both parties" are at the federal level - got it. I was interpreting that as a local thing.

Yes, I see Democrats have had a monopoly in Chicago since 1931... No wonder the city has issues!
