There's a report that Realtor dot com and Redfin are removing crime data from their search. Frankly, I'm sick and tired of this #woke #BS

Whatever your percentage of #melanin, we're all human and we care about knowing crime data when we decide where we want to buy. I advise not using either of these sites. Use the URL in the picture shown above and to search homes in private without your data being sold to advertisers and agents, use https://SearchHomesInPrivate.com

Realtor_com says "We at Realtor_com have been working to break down those hurdles. For example, earlier this month, we removed the crime map layer from all search results on Realtor_com to rethink the safety information we share on Realtor_com and how we can best integrate it as part of a consumer’s home search experience".

Redfin explains "We recently decided not to add neighborhood crime data to Redfin_com. We were considering this because we’re very much focused on answering all the questions people have when they’re considering a home purchase, and we know that one of these questions is whether they’ll feel safe in a given home or neighborhood. But the data available don’t allow us to speak accurately to that question, and given the long history of redlining and racist housing covenants in the United States there’s too great a risk of this inaccuracy reinforcing racial bias."
