In Reply to: Yes, "safer". Beatings, robberies, urchins etc. London is *far worse*. Lookee here (if you dare): posted by clarkjohnsen on May 3, 2007 at 08:13:33:
....\\\The United States has incarcerated 726 people per 100,000 of its population, seven to 10 times as many as most other democracies.///Further.... \\\ The rate for England is 142 per 100,000, for France 91 and for Japan 58///
The Justice Department also indicated “violent crime†had fallen in the US significantly since the early 90’s.
I readily concede that using statistics to rate “safeness†is open to vast interpretation.
I am not aware of many people advocating New York is a safer place to live than most European Cities. Maybe it is?
