You are correct; there is a lot of criminal activity in SRO's and Sec. 8 public housing. But that has nothing to do with party affiliation. In the 70's the state boards of health saw their funding cut to the bone by Ahemm, not Dems. This resulted in the vast exodus of schizo-affectives onto the streets without any recourse to treatment. The rational; new drugs that could control the symptoms. However that requires monitoring which of course cost money.
Then there are people with addictions disorders that do respond to treatment providing it is available. The cost of not giving treatment is higher than the cost of providing it. The Rep's chose to build jails instead; because... drug enforcement is big business. Just follow the money.
