Why cant an apartment agent tell me about the crime rate in this part of town?
She says it's the law which sounds like a load of bullshit to me

I worked on a PD for many years, sometime in the mid 80's we got an order from city hall to NOT discuss crime rates and "good or bad" parts of town with citizens or those interested in moving in.
There were ways to get around it. You can try but to call but be aware that many communities forbid such discussions to avoid a bad image.
A more unbiased source of information is your insurance agent. They have communities broken down by sections (square miles) and crime rates are reflected in the rates.
