Thumbs up NYC Still Safest Big City in America

The capital of the World, and the only real city on the continent, is even safer than last year. We are still #10 out of the 10 biggest cities in America. Last year we were #203 out of 230. This year we improved to #211.

And, Atlanta's been lying all this time - though I KNEW it!! The ATL is a huge crime center and I was often a victim (and occasionally a perpetrator in my earliest days.)

ETA: BTW, I'm VERY glad to hear about NY since I'll be moving up there soon!!!

Come on, Russ.

It's a great city -- maybe the greatest -- at least in my opinion, but let's not get carried away here.

There are a number of great cities here for a lot of different reasons.

Please don't rub it in. I never thought that I would see the day when the Nets were better than the Knicks.

I live in VA. WE HAVE NO SPORTS TEAMS. Were forced to leech off DCs, and in some cases, Baltimore.

I believe it.

Every time I've gone there, I've felt very safe walking around at night. Certainly safer than I did at school.

Daym, and I moved to Atlanta from IOWA.
Quite a change, actually. I am fortunate that I live in Buckhead, though.

Buckhead probably has a higher crime rate than NYC as well.
