Homicide rates in Harlem is down 90% since 1990, while percentage out of wedlock is about the same in african americans - about 70% in the period 1990-2020.

In the Harlem neighborhood of New York City in 1925, 85 percent of kin-related Black households had two parents. [30] When Moynihan warned in his 1965 report on the coming destruction of the Black family, however, the out-of-wedlock birthrate had increased to 25% among the Black population. [27] This figure continued to rise over time and in 1991, 68% of Black children were born outside of marriage. [31] U.S. Census data from 2010 reveal that more African-American families consisted of single mothers than married households with both parents. [32] Most recently, in 2011; it was reported that 72% of Black babies were born to unmarried mothers. [26]

Nationwide crime has gone down over 50 % between 1990 and now. But out-of-wedlock births have gone up in all communities.

There is no doubt family stability is an important to healthy emotional growth of children. But having or not having a marriage certificate is not making as much difference to crime rates.
