I've been to Espanola so many times I couldn't even begin to try to count them. Some how I am still alive and typing this response right now.

I just moved here from South Carolina and am glad to be here! I think SC is much worse as far as violence. Every day it seems the news reports someone is killed in Spartenburg, Greenville or Anderson. There is crime everywhere, but no gun shots in front of my house so far! Love it here!

Maybe I am just being obtuse but I do not consider crime rates to be a major factor when I consider a place to visit or live.

A friend of mine from Albuquerque (single, retired female) moved to New Orleans a few years ago and absolutely loves it! I have to laugh at people's obsession with "danger" rankings and crime statistics.

Those crime statistics ARE people.
If you were unfortunate enough to live in a crime infested neighborhood, would it still be a 'laughing' matter?

A crime-infested neighborhood is not a laughing matter. I'm laughing at rankings of entire cities and states. They all have good and bad. I have lived in supposedly "safe" places where there was still crime.

Agreed aries63.

I used to live on a street with half a dozen police officers.
They all parked their State and County Police cruisers out front.
One night someone vandalized 33 cars on my street.....including 3 Police cruisers.

Go figure?
