      Depending on the timeline, that’s not true, but that’s the problem with resetting a timeline a dozen or whatever times. We see an endless amount of him fighting the crime and never the results.

      Considering there’s, variously,

      1. the Lazarus pit leeching into the groundwater,
      2. The Illuminati Court of Owls enabling more crime alongside the general pervasive corruption by the ruling class,
      3. The buried evil bat god Barbatos who was summoned and remains under the city
      4. The corruption of insane wizard Dr. Gotham who has also been buried under the city for over 40,000 years (Who gave him a doctorate 40,000 years ago is what I want to know.),
      5. Amadeus Arkham (and seemingly every warden of Arkham since) grossly mistreating the patients there.
      6. The city being surrounded by swampland lending it to be perpetually gloomy.

      One can see why the city might not have the best base to positively grow from.
