“Police Chief Reuben Greenberg of Charleston, S.C., likes to think of community safety as a “product.” Greenberg said Charleston attracted 4 million tourists last year, up a half million from the year before. People “don’t want to be tourists where they have to risk their lives and the lives of their children,” he said. […] “We cannot eliminate crime, but we can reduce it,” said Greenberg, noting that open-air drug markets in Charleston are “virtually gone.”
