In April of 2019 ''The Guardian'' wrote about Buttigieg and South Bend, Indiana:
{{Cquote|...Buttigieg’s focus on downtown has been criticized for coming at the expense of other neighborhoods. More than a quarter of the population still lives at or below the poverty line, well above the national average of 14%. Crime is also high. There were 15 murders, 93 rapes and 345 robberies per 100,000 in South Bend in 2017, compared to six, 52 and 339 per 100,000 in 2010, according to City-Data.com.<ref>[https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/apr/17/pete-buttigieg-2020-run-south-bend-poverty-crime Does everyone really love Mayor Pete?
