According to the FBI San Jose's crime rate is a commendable 2.9 (65th out of the 68 cities with populations > 250K). Honolulu, which coincidentally has almost the same ~910K populaton as San Jose, has the lowest rate at 1.7. On the other hand how does one define "large city?" Is a "large city" over 1 million? By that standard only San Diego has a lower crime rate than NYC. Is a "large city" over 2 million? That cuts the group down to just NYC, LA, and Chicago, and New York's crime rate is a fraction of the rates in either of those cities.
