I don't know why anyone would judge a city they plan to live in based on how an entire state is analyzed. We live in NY. Our town is small and there is virtually no crime. I joke that our police station is a little house with 2 police cars- like the Andy Griffith Show. But you can drive 15 minutes and be in a city with a lot more crime. You have to look at the specific area you want to move to. We are looking in Scottsdale. Stats change dramatically from zip code to zip code. Also, don't just look at crime, if you have children, go to the State Sex Offender website (every state has it) and you can see how many registered sex offenders are in the zip codes as well.

Any how many that are nor registered, even if an area doesn't have any registered that still doesn't mean a thing. It's sad the way we have to watch out kids so close these days.

Well, registered sex offenders means they were caught. That is not all sex offenders by far. But it means a lot. Where I live, I see a direct correllation with amount of registered sex offenders and crime rates in general. Criminals live in more "seady" areas. Please don't say it doesn't mean a thing. If you mean that, then I guess you would have no problem with a known sex offender living right next door to you while your children play outside?

Additionally, the big picture here is don't judge a town by the state it is in. There are great towns/cities and junky ones all in the same state. State statistics is not a good barometer.

If CA and Arizona are running out of water.... Stupid question how did Nevada get it's water (H2O) that's pure dessert.. Can't get any dryer than that.. Maybe it's the people and business and party factor to make the state want to produce more there... Really it's the commerce factor of supply and demand... So what's Colorado Dam/Boulder Dam they no like turn the faucet on toward your way.... Go figure that's kind of a dumb statement think of better comments or is it just me...
I live on the Hawaiian Islands that are even more stupid.. So go figure is it the consumer people or is it who runs the places example at government level Hummmm that's a big thought in question....

That's sad reg. sex offenders
Maybe they should be like Oahu Honolulu, Hawaii tons of hoouchey places (naked ***** and ass bars that you pay for) Plus you have all the 24/7 reg bars you pick up on a local or mainlander weeker or two sex romp... Or Hotel and Kuhio street strips that all the hookers walk there beat those are quickies from what I hear.... Paradise lots of skimppy clothing or non hey there this so called upper class houchy Amber Ricci that does this Inner Fire Naked **** stuff at an Estate in Potlock area... She's not very professional though all for the money... But Arizona can't be any worse than Paradise Hawaiian Islands... They also have a drug epidemic here lousey psychologist though one good and on the other hand one bad on **** out of luck getting help to actually resolve the problem...
I'm trying to leave Honolulu to make it to the state of Arizona... I feel Arizona has a lot more to offer than crapped out shallow two face Hawaii and there government and people running it... There just doing maintenance and running the state into the ground.. Full on tourism state Hawaiian Islands that where the money is at... It's difintely a different place to live but I would say no longer to experience more than 5 years to try out 7 is stretching it ...

Hmm, you won't find nerds and professors here. More like cowboys and men who drive big trucks.

I've only met one person in over three years I've been interested in here. Kinda slim pickings, IMHO.

Of course, one is all it takes, but comparisons are useful.
