Hmmmmm. Right here in the US we have plenty.☺ I can tell you about a place named Baltimore Maryland. It's such a beautiful area for the most part But the crime there is insane. However most of the people there are definitely good hard working people. What do you think. Can you name a city that is known for its high rate of crime. Best answer wins.☺ 🏙
The question itself is open ended although does specify crime rate in its explanation, a bland "A-thousand crimes per year" or equally bland "A%" by population alone does not give a true impression of the city.
Crime numbers or rate are of course not the same, and simply naming a city under the headline question can give a very distorted impression.
1000 crimes in one year is still 1000 crimes - and still 1000 too many - whether in a city of 1M or 10M people, but the larger of those two towns is the much safer one to inhabit or visit.
Even then, pure totals or rates are not sufficient for the city's reputation because that also depends heavily on the predominant types of crime and how those are reported.
The totals reported may be accurate but if of an entire class of offence rather than of specific offences within that class, they potentially give a very skewed view of the situation.
@Zonuss Well, Jerusalem and Washington DC are tied for being the places where the most genociders hang out to plan their murders around the world. They call themselves "government officials."
It's really sad how many cities we have with crime problems. It's not that we don't know what the causes are, it's that the system doesn't care, or it does in one aspect, but not enough to do something about it.
@calicuz we don't even need to look at other countries. We have studies upon studies outling causes and fixes, and cities who have accomplished quite a lot, but they are few. And our government and the people continue ignoring the fixes. They'd rather point fingers and lay blame than do anything.
@Zonuss I doubt I'd be surprised, even in politics. Maybe especially in politics. At least the street criminal is honest about be a criminal - not so about politicians.
