Why would any company want to do business in a crime infested city?

@Northwest I'm convinced that people who use words like "crime infested cities" don't know what the term 'per capita' means

If they bothered to look at crime rates relative to the population, it's a lot higher in places like Anchorage, AK, Birmingham, AL, St. Louis, MO, and Memphis, TN than it is in San Fran or Seattle. Not coincidentally all in deeply red states

@TinyViolins Then another thing to consider is that wealth inequality and proximity play a role. A poor person is going to be more likely to steal from a middle-class person, than from another poor person. A lot of those big cities, that Republicans always point to, have people from every economic situation living near each other. Los Angeles and New York City aren't small towns where everyone makes about the same amount of money. This is why organized crime has always been a big city thing. That's where the wealth is.

@TinyViolins Sorry, but the murder rate per capita means per 100,000 people.
Do you understand per capita rates? Of course there are more murders in big
cities. A high per capita rate has nothing to do with overall population.

It is a statistic per a metric, if there were 10 murders in a city of 100,000.
it would be equivalent to 100 murders in a city of 1 million. Those murder rates
above are PER CAPITA. New Orleans has the highest per capita rate, not the
most murders.
