of course your at more risk of crime if you live a life of crime. that doesnt mean that the average person is safe. as many people get robbed and shot everyday who have nothing to do with criminal activity. like my mom. got robbed at 10:30 in the morning in a kmart parking lot. my mom doesnt live a life of crime. shes a school teacher. yet she was still a victim of crime in this county. my dad doesnt live a life of crime but yet he still too had 500 bucks stolen out of his truck in front of my house in a nice neighborhood. and about the little circle of friends. i know people in every city in my county. from riviera to belle glade. from boca to lake worth. i know real people, who also know much as i do what PBC is like.

None of this tells anyone how likely they are to be safe anywhere.
someone with no money will most likely rob someone with money.

No one ever said that average people are never crime victims. We went through this already in this very thread. Your memory can not be that short. (Well, I guess it could be, but that would be unusual.)

Where is this information coming from, and how is the source defining "(having) no money" and "(having) money"?

With all due respect, the way you present yourself on the board (specifically the other thread where you threaten people to "get they head beat" if they come to your town trying to say that PBC isn't "hard" or something similar).... says to me that you might run in circles a little more apt to be exposed to crime, and that YOUR "Palm Beach County" experience would be about as typical as a Palm Beach trust fund baby trying to equate HIS anectdotal experiences on life in Palm Beach to what is typical or to be expected as "normal." It's not.

The victimization rate in Palm Beach County (as everywhere) is OVERWHELMINGLY young minority males. Not to say that others aren't or can't be victims, but if you ever look at a murder map and their victims, including Lake Worth, there is disproportionate representation amongst those kinds of people who would get all worked up that someone from some crap hole city up North dares to say that Palm Beach isn't as crappy as where they come from. No?

Seriously. It's a shameful thing. Not to be celebrated.

Or at least play one on TV.

Which is another reason it's nice to meet some of the sources of these ridiculous claims in person. It's easier to be an actor in a post than in person.

Hmmm . . . if we're picking out videos to reflect something about us or our aesthetics, here you go for me:
