US Homicide Rate vs US Inflation Rate
US Homicide Rate and US Inflation Rate correlate at r = +0.44 over 31 years (1990–2023), p = 0.013. With the time trend removed, r = +0.56. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = 0.013) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = 0.56). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
