Theft and property crime are on the rise in Seattle’s Sodo district, and far outpacing crime rates in the rest of the city. Across Seattle, violent crime is up, while property crimes are down, averaging out to a one percent increase in crime. But in the area known as the Flatlands, which encompasses the Georgetown and Sodo districts, property crime rates have increased by a staggering 31 percent over last year according to Seattle Police Department data.
