Good question. I think part of it is that unemployment in that city is horrible so they have trouble finding people that even want to live in that town. Still, you would think if you advertised that you could have a free house if you moved there they would get some takers.
Aside from the crime issue the other reason they want to destroy them is all those empty houses continue to drive down the value of the lived in houses. If you actually put people in the empty houses it might actually help moves values back up.
