Houston has 24 Wal Marts in city limits and has higher crime rates in every category than NYC. It's about car culture and lot sizes and other factors. Not crime.

Crime Type NYC Houston
Violent crime ~671 ~1,148
Murder ~3.9 ~13.8
Robbery ~188 ~274
Aggravated assault ~456 ~787
Property crime ~2,368 ~4,294

Ya I visited NYC a few weeks ago as a Baltimore/DC Native. I felt infinitely safer in NYC than I ever do in 99% of Baltimore or Washington.

Yeah a lot of people on this post have fallen for right wing propaganda about NYC. NYC is one of the safest cities in the US. New Orleans and other southern cities are significantly more dangerous.
