Up a bit or down a bit is not the issue, but rather the amount of crime. Compare urban areas to rural areas.
California is an interesting place. Many property crimes are no longer investigated so victims stop reporting them. In doing so it appears that those crimes have decreased when in fact they have gone up. And it's hard to steal from a shop that closed due to high theft rates.
