from wikipedia

Crime in New York City is the lowest among the 25 largest cities in the United States. Since 1991, New York City has seen a continuous fifteen-year trend of decreasing crime. Neighborhoods that were once considered dangerous are now much safer. Violent crime in the city has dropped by 75% in the last twelve years and the murder rate in 2005 was at its lowest level since 1963: there were 537 murders that year, for a murder rate of 6.57 per 100,000 people, compared to 2245 murders in 1990. Some feel that the implementation of COMPSTAT crime analysis by the New York Police Department in 1994 is responsible for the positive changes.

Overall, New York City had a rate of 2,801.6 crimes per 100,000 people in 2004, compared with 8,959.7 in Dallas; 7,903.7 in Detroit; 7,402.3 in Phoenix; 7,346.8 in San Antonio; 7,194.8 in Houston; 5,470.5 in Philadelphia; 4,376.0 in Los Angeles; and 4,102.7 in San Diego.

I've been to quite a few of those. Washington D.C. is the only city that I've truly ever felt like I might actually be in danger and I've been in Harlem, West Oakland, West Hollywood and many other places that are supposedly "rough neighborhoods".

Heh, I wandered into some really bad part of L.A. and the cruelty was, as I look up and saw that every house on the street had muscle-bound gangstas on the porches, all looking at me like cobras look at 3 legged mice, I became terrified which made me face 5 times whiter than it already is.

For people in the Uk its

Nottingham
Leeds
Stockport
Greater Manchester
Bradford
