Well, duh. But the two big cities tend to skew stats a lot.
NYC should be the 51st state (it has an operating budget bigger than a
lot of nations).

Lets compare the crime rate in my
town of 18,000 to lets say...HollyWood, per capita of course.

I already did big town/little town: "I live near Syracuse, a city of
about 100,000 that has a higher murder rate than NYC."

By the numbers, it's safer in bad old NYC than in upstate NY.

New York state is a nice place. NYC..well..if they were gonna give the
East Coast an enema..thats one of the places they would put the hose.

Nonesense. I've been in NYC and DC and DC is far worse (leading the
country in violent crime... way to go!).

DC is already hosed....G

Gumdrop, when is the last time you have ever been to either city?
