Most violence is a result of poor economic areas. People don't go around doing crimes if they are employed and able to provide for themselves.
Being poor doesn't make a person violent.

Wholesale demographic replacement through gentrification will do that for you. It'll be interesting to see how much lower the rates go once the influx of Amazon workers flips even more neighborhoods.

There's a reason why West Virginia has a lower homicide rate than PG county does despite the fact that West Virginia would kill to have the per-capita GDP that PG county does, it's just that everyone's terrified of calling attention to it.
Here's a hint: It's the same reason why DC has seen a consistent decline in annual homicides over the past 25 years, while Baltimore's homicide rate has stayed largely flat over the same time period.
