[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - I don't think crime statistics really matter to most posters here. They hate cities, including the District, and will argue to the end that urban areas are miserable and dangerous. [/quote] No one is arguing that they hate cities. New York City’s homicide rate is 8x lower than DC’s. Boston is probably going to close this year with less than 30 murders and has 650,000 people. https://www.masslive.com/news/2024/09/bostons-homicide-rate-is-sharply-down-its-not-just-luck.html?outputType=amp [quote]As of Sept. 27, Boston had seen 15 homicides. By the same time in 2023, the number was 30. In 2022, it was 26. In 2021, it was 32, according to data provided by the Boston Police Department.[/quote] The capital of the country should be at least as safe as Philadelphia (it’s not) and should aim to be as safe as NYC and Boston. Until then, you shouldn’t be satisfied. [/quote]
