The outlier being Idaho. |

Where I live in Texas at the present is pretty safe. Don't know about the Yankee states though.

View Quote Are they the safest because they plea down the charges and blow them off; they have a more homogeneous population; they don’t have any major population centers? I suspect that there is some bias in the article as I find it hard to believe New York, New Jersey, and Pensilvania are in the top 10 safest places. |

"Jesus this place is too dangerous, we should move to Jersey!" Said no one in Utah ever NY "man visiting son at college killed by random bullet from full auto Glock in the Marriot" Utah "graffiti spotted at skateboard park, public outraged" |

lol @ Maine.
Half the state lives in one metro area, and it's not safe. |

Propaganda to get people to move there since everyone with any skills left and they're running out of victims. Crime statistics are low because if you eliminate crimes nobody breaks the law
Yankee states can keep all their libtards that vote these idiots trying to destroy America into office. |

The table here puts NY and NJ in the middle

We looked at moving there and there are nice rural kind of western culture areas but the cities are crazy Baltimore level murder zones. |

Tennessee is too dangerous. The entire state is Memphis or Deliverance.

Said no one in Utah ever NY "man visiting son at college killed by random bullet from full auto Glock in the Marriot" Utah "graffiti spotted at skateboard park, public outraged" View Quote One nice thing about moving back to Back Home Again in Indiana from Chiraq is while there I needed to follow Groot and her comrades to catch the next horrible thing they were about to do. Not the case in my sleepy little Hoosier town. 8pm in the summer, 7 or earlier in the fall and winter and it's like someone turned the town's switch to off for the night. |

Is that a per capita thing so high populations somehow dilute the crime rates?
Because I'm betting Montana, Wyoming and North Dakota all have extremely low crime rates, but correspondingly low populations. |

Those demographics and the remnants of Puritan culture are a powerful thing.

Lol. As long as new York doesn't report crime then there is no crime.
Brilliant! |

That's a stupid article. Many of the most dangerous areas in the country are also located in those states.

Quoted: I WONDER WHAT IS THE COMMON DENOMINATOR? not as many poors! View Quote Exactly, It's not gun laws (as NH, VT, ME are all included), I lived in NH and MA (very different for gun laws) in nice areas for most of the last 15 years (before moving to WA a year ago) and felt incredibly safe and petty crime was almost non-existent. Now here in affluent WA (just across the lake from Seattle) there is constant petty theft, I've seen people blatantly stealing from Home Depot or clothing stores (door alarms going off and no-one does anything) or stealing packages from people's porches, and those crimes aren't investigated or prosecuted. Downtown there is a major homeless problem (and recently a major Antifa problem), and nothing is done. So what's different compared to NH/MA? to me it seems like the difference is policing and support for policing. Small town cops where we lived in NH/MA make six figures before overtime and are proactive in investigating crimes instead of hiding and trying to catch people doing 10 over the speed limit. Inner city crime still existed but the DA al least tried to make an effort, in the nicer areas they came down hard of visiting criminals. |

Jersey doesn't have 578 municipalities with their own departments, so that seems like an odd number. Of course Florida takes the cake: Florida came in last with only two law enforcement agencies — or .26% of its 757 departments — participating. |

Just going off of the official numbers posted on the FBI data site. Fact remains, NJ/NY severely under reported their crimes, per the FBI. No clue how much it would impact the total numbers but I'd be willing to bet they'd be bumped from the list. |
