>I don't know. He was focused on a spike in crime in the 1980s. He believes the spike may have been due to lead in gas. Sounds plausible. However, reducing lead in gas hasn't changed the fact that crime is higher in the poorer, denser parts of American cities.

Right. So it doesn't account for all of the crime difference by population density... but it does account for the trends in it. Crime is still higher in poorer, denser parts of cities than it is in wealthier, less dense ones, but crime in those poorer and denser areas is lower in 2012 than it was in 1980.
